Yes, it is quite simple.
Draw a straight line segment, AB. Put the compass point at A and open it so that the pencil point is at B. Then draw an arc. Next, without changing the compass setting move it to B and draw another arc to cut the previous arc at C. [Actually there will be two points, one on either side of AB.] Using the straight edge, join AC and BC. Then ABC is an equilateral triangle.
What else can I help you with?
You can draw a regular hexagon using only a straightedge and compass by the first building an equilateral triangle?
True...
In the straightedge and compass construction of the equilateral triangle below reasons can you use to prove that and are congruent?
In the construction of an equilateral triangle using a straightedge and compass, you can prove that the segments are congruent by demonstrating that all sides of the triangle are created using the same radius of the compass. When you draw a circle with a center at one vertex and a radius equal to the distance to the next vertex, you ensure that each side is of equal length. Additionally, using the properties of circles, you can show that the angles formed at each vertex are congruent, reinforcing that all sides are equal, thus establishing the triangle's equilateral nature.

How do you construct an equilateral triangle?
Draw a point. Set your compass to a certain length and mark an arc from the point to make a line. With the same measurement make an arc above the line from both endpoints. Using a straightedge, connect both endpoints to the two arcs intersections. Done.
