✓
Answer
Steps of construction:
1) Draw a circle with centre O and radius = 2.5 cm.
2) With radius ( = 2.5 cm) cut off six equal arcs along the circumference and take these points as A, B, C, D, E, and F respectively.
3) Draw tangents at A, B, C, D, E, and F meeting to form circumscribed hexagon PQRSTU.
