<p>"Find the arc measure of the arc cut by one side of a circumscribed regular hexagon."
F. 30 degrees
G. 60 degrees
H. 120 degrees
J. 180 degrees
K. 240 degrees</p>

<p>Need help on this.</p>

<p>I am going to say 60 because hexagon has 6 sides and 1/6 of 360 (a circle) is 60. </p>

<p>But I don’t have a picture and I don’t exactly remember the definition of circumscribed</p>

<p>I THINK it’s 240? But I suck at math so don’t trust me!
My reasoning is, the formula for the sum of interior angles of a shape is (# of sides-2) * 180. So, (6-2) * 180= 720. Then, since it’s a regular hexagon, all you need to do to find one interior angle is divide by six, which is 120. Then, the angle that forms in the circle (sorry, I don’t remember the name) is equal to 1/2 the arc it makes. So, the arc would be 120 * 2 = 240.
I hope I’m right! Sorry if i’m not =/</p>

<p>I believe its 60° for the same reason as the first guy.</p>
