उत्तर

 
Steps of construction:

  1. Draw a line segment AB = 5.8 cm.
  2. At A and B, draw rays making an angle of 120° each and cut off AF = BC = 5.8 cm.
  3. Again F and C, draw rays making an angle of 120° each and cut off FE = CD = 5.8 cm.
  4. Join DE. Then ABCDEF is the regular hexagon.
  5. Draw the bisectors of ∠A and ∠B intersecting each other at O.
  6. From O, draw OL ⊥ AB.
  7. With centre O and radius OL, draw a circle which touches the sides of the hexagon.
    This is the required in circle of the hexagon.
