Introduction. In hyperbolic geometry we have three compasses, namely an ordinary compass for drawing ordinary circles with a given centre and a given radius, a hypercompass for drawing hypercycles with a given axis and a given radius, and a horocompass for drawing horocycles with a given diameter and passing through a given point.
