Which step is the same when constructing an inscribed square and an inscribed regular hexagon? construct a circle first. construct a line first. set the compass to the radius. set the compass to greater than half the diameter.

Construct a circle first ⇒ 1st answer

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the steps of constructing a square

1. Using your compass, draw a circle and label the center O

2. Using your straightedge, draw a diameter of the circle, and label its

   endpoints A and B.

3. Construct the perpendicular bisector of the diameter, AB

4. Label the points where the bisector intersects the circle as C and D.

5. Connect points A to B to C to D to form the square

* Lets revise the steps of constructing an inscribed regular hexagon

1. Put your compass pin on the paper and draw a circle

2. Put a dot, labeled P, anywhere on the circumference of the

   circle as a starting point.

3. Without changing the open of the compass, place the compass pin

   on P and draw a small arc crossing the circumference of the circle.

4. Without changing the open of the compass, move the compass

   pin to the intersection of the previous arc and the circumference

   and draw another small arc on the circumference of the circle.

5. Repeat this step of until you return to point P.

6. Starting at P connect to adjacent arcs on the circle to form

   the regular hexagon

* From the steps of constructing the two figure is

- Use your compass to draw a circle

∴ The answer is "Construct a circle first"
