What is the difference between constructing a square and constructing a regular hexagon?
The diameter of the circle is used for the square construction, but the radius of the circle is used for the regular
hexagon construction.
The radius of the circle is used for the square construction, but the diameter of the circle is used for the regular
hexagon construction.
The square will need two arcs along the circle, but the hexagon will need two arcs above and two arcs below
the diameter of the circle.
The square will need six arcs along the circle, but the hexagon will need two arcs above and two arcs below
the diameter of the circle.

Option C - The square will need two arcs along the circle, but the hexagon will need two arcs above and two arcs below the diameter of the circle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's look at all the options;

Option A: This is wrong because for both square and hexagon construction in a circle, the diameter of the circle is used in both cases.

Option B: This is also wrong for the same reason given in option A

Option C: This is correct because when constructing a square in a circle, we will need 2 arcs for the perpendicular bisector whereas for hexagon, we will need 2 arcs above and 2 arcs below the diameter to get the other 4 points since the horizontal line across the centre of the circle already carries 2 points.

Option D - This is not corrrect because of the reason given in option C
