standard_description: Make formal geometric constructions with a variety of tools and methods (compass and straightedge, string, reflective devices, paper folding, dynamic geometric software, etc.). Copying a segment; copying an angle; bisecting a segment; bisecting an angle; constructing perpendicular lines, including the perpendicular bisector of a line segment; and constructing a line parallel to a given line through a point not on the line.
problem_activity: Task
Let $C$ be a circle with center $O$ and a diameter meeting $C$ in points
$P$ and $S$ as shown below:
[IMG]
With straightedge and compass, show how to find  a point $Q$ on $C$ so that triangle $OPQ$ is equilateral.
Repeating part (a) show how to find points $R, T, U$ on $C$ so that
$PQRSTU$ is a regular hexagon.
Find the area of $PQRSTU$.  How does it compare to the area of $C$?
