@tkhunny  will you help ?

tkhunny · Answer

If it were a hexagon, one might more appropriately copy the radius around the circle, six times.  So, probably not the hexagon.

tkhunny · Answer

If it were a pentagon, one might more appropriately start with a diameter OUTSIDE the circle.  So, probably not a pentagon.

tkhunny · Answer

If it were a triangle, one might more appropriately copy the diameter a couple of times across the circle.  So, probably not a triangle.

We're running out of options!
