Step construction formed. 1)Draw point A and point B. 2)Set the compass from point A to point B.Maintain this setting through the conclusion of the construction. 3)Construct a circle with center point A.

Answer 1

Construction of an inscribed regular hexagon in a circle:

The following are the steps in the correct order to construct an inscribed regular hexagon in a circle.

1) Draw point A and point B

2) Set the compass from point A to point B. Maintain this setting through the conclusion of the construction.

3) Construct a circle with center point A.

4) Set the compass on point B and swing an arc that intersects the circle.

5) Create arcs on the circle by moving the compass to six evenly spaced points on the circle.

6) Use a straightedge to draw segments between consecutive arc/circle intersection points.
