Steps of Construction:
$1)$ Draw $AB = 4\ cm.$
$2)$With centres $A$ and $B$ and radius $4\ cm$ draw arcs to cut each other at $O.$
$3)$ With centre $A$ and $B$ and radius $4\ cm$ cut the arcs in step $2$ at $C$ and $F$.
Join $AF, BC.$
$4)$ With centres $C$ and $F$ and radius $4\ cm$ cut the arc drawn in step $3$ at $D$ and $E$.
Join $CD, DE$ and $EF.$
$5)\text{ABCDEF}$ is the required regular hexagon.
