Answer

A regular hexagon inscribed in a circle

Explanation

This construction simply defines a regular hexagon that has been inscribed in a circle with a compass and straight edge. Every side of the regular hexagon will be equal to the distance from the center to any of the vertex. The width of the compass is set at the radius distance and the length is marked off around the circle to form six vertices of the regular hexagon.
