Draw a circle circumscribing a regular hexagon with side 5 cm. 

आकृति

उत्तर

 
Steps of construction:

  1. Draw a regular hexagon ABCDEF with each side equal to 5 cm and each interior angle 120°.
  2. Join its diagonals AD, BE and CF intersecting each other at O.
  3. With centre as O and radius OA, draw a circle which will pass through the vertices A, B, C, D, E and F.
    This is the required circumcircle.
