Personification because the hat was given human characteristics to something nonhuman life like the hat in this case.

Answer:

The figurative language used in this sentence is a simile.

Step-by-step explanation:

The use of the word "like" compares the hat spinning in the air to a miniature flying saucer, which was the logical reasoning behind my answer.
