the circle. Label this point P. This will be the first of the hexagon. 2. Set the compass on P and set the width of the compass to the center of the circle O. The compass is now set to the . 3. Make an arc across the circle. This will be the next vertex of the hexagon. Call this point Q. (It turns out that the side length of a hexagon is equal to its circumradius - the distance from the center to a vertex).
