A regular hexagon comprises 6 equilateral triangles.

For a regular hexagon, inscribing a circle, the length of the side of the hexagon and the radius of the circle are : Constructions, Concise Mathematics Solutions ICSE Class 10.

∴ BAC is an equilateral triangle.

∴ AB = BC = CA.

From figure,

⇒ AP < CA

⇒ AP < BC

⇒ Radius < Side of hexagon

Hence, Option 3 is the correct option.
