Im not sure if this is right but.

Make the diameter by putting the line on points A and C. Then put the middle of the tool on point A and make the width to point C and draw a circle. Do the same for point B (other side of point A) without changing the width. Then plot the lines where the circles intersect and you have a hexagon :)

Answer:

there is one photo without the hexagon drawn out, and one with it drawn, so you can see it all. there's one small hexagon and one long one.
