"A regular hexagon is made up of 6 equal sides that means that there is a total of 6 equal angles.
If the radius of a circle is r then the circumference of the circle will be 2 * pi * r that means that length of the arc is 2 * pi * r /6 = pi * r / 3
Now, the centre of the circle will be 360 degrees in total and hence the arc drawn will be 360/6 = 60 degree. Hence there will be a total of 6 arcs.
