The Bill of Rights is the name given to the first ten amendments so the Tenth Amendment is part of the Bill of Rights.
Ninth Amendment said "The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people." Tenth Amendment said "The powers not delegated to the United Stated by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the Stated repectively, or to the people." The Ninth and Tenth Amendments were added because not every right of the people or of the states could be listed in the Constitution.

No, the Tenth Amendment is the last Amendment in the Bill of Rights (the first Ten Amendments to the Constitution). As of 2011, the US Constitution has 27 Amendments; the last, concerning compensation to members of Congress, was ratified in 1992.
The Ninth Amendment states that the Constitution does not deny or disparage other rights that belong to the people, even if they are not specifically mentioned. The Tenth Amendment states that powers not delegated to the federal government are reserved for the states or the people. These amendments emphasize the protection of individual rights and the limitation of the federal government's authority.

The Tenth Amendment gives the states freedoms and control
There are four Constitutional amendments that expand the definition of popular sovereignty. The Ninth Amendment deals with the rights of the people. The Tenth Amendment outlines the powers of federalism. The Seventeenth Amendment clarifies the election of senators. The Nineteenth Amendment established women's suffrage.
The Ninth and Tenth Amendments do not guarantee rights and thus there is an ongoing debate about the meaning of these amendments. The meanings of these amendments are quite ambigous because of the language and there are consequently numerous interpretations. For example, the Tenth amendment was designed to reserve powers to the states and two theories about this amendment were that it states the nature of American federalism but adds nothing to the Constitution as originally ratified and that it protects the powers of the states against national government.
The 10th Amendment is part of the Bill of Rights. It was not passed by a President (Presidents do not pass laws- THAT is the job of the Legislative Branch). However, the first 10 amendments are the same age as the Constitution. When that was adopted in 1789, George Washington was President.
