Hexagon inscribed in a circle
A six-sided figure sits within a circle, its vertices touching the circumference and faint lines crossing the interior. The drawing is a plain geometric construction, lightly executed in pencil. It corresponds to the standard problem of inscribing a regular hexagon in a given circle.
