Answer 1

Straightedge and compass because computers are much easier to use and are more accurate.

Answer 2

Using a straightedge and compass will take more time.

Explanation:

Liam should use a computer program to draw the construction of a regular hexagon inscribed in a circle.

This is because, if this construction is done manually, he will have to measure the dimensions himself that is time taking and also not accurate.

But a computer program is more easy, quick and precise in calculations. You just have to enter numbers and the work is done quickly.
