A compass is usually a small box with a glass cover on it. A magnetised needle is pivoted inside the box, which can rotate freely.

The compass also has a dial with directions marked on it.

The compass is kept at the place where we wish to know the directions. Its needle indicates the north-south direction when it comes to rest.

The compass is then rotated until the north and south marked on the dial are at the two ends of the needle.

To identify the north-pole of the magnetic needle, it is usually painted in a different colour.

Red colour arrow usually points to North Pole. If we know the North direction we can find all other 3 directions of that place.
