Duplicate the cog. Choose Item > Rotate > Rotate Arbitrary

It will create additional 35 cogs rotated by 10 degrees each (full circle has 360 degrees so we need 36 cogs total). Use half of the circle height to define the center of rotation (Y offset).

Press Ctrl+A to select both circle and cogs. Choose Edit > Align > Center on Page
