A designer draftsperson must draw a pan lid in circular form. To perform this drawing, she has, at the moment, only a compass whose leg length is 10 cm, a protractor, and a sheet of paper with a Cartesian plane. To sketch this lid, she separated the compass legs so that the angle formed by them was $120^{\circ}$. The needle point is represented by point $C$, the pencil point is represented by point $B$, and the compass head is represented by point $A$.

A mountain bike type bicycle has a chainring with 3 gears and a cassette with 6 gears, which, combined with each other, determine 18 speeds (number of chainring gears times the number of cassette gears).
The number of teeth of the gears on the chainrings and cassettes of this bicycle are listed in the table.
