Back to the "purpose": Since you do not know the measure of the
"side" [edge], what purpose is it needed for with such "precision"?
Assuming that you mean distance from edge to opposite edge, and not
diagonal, the distance across one edge would be 2 3/16", not 1".

Actually I am getting two possible measurements for the length of each of
the 6 sides.
If the hexagon has to fit inside of a 3.5" diameter circle the sides will
each be 1.75" long.
If the hexagon has to fit outside of a 3.5" diameter circle the sides will
each be 2" long.

That's why I said, "Assuming that you mean distance from edge to
opposite edge", rather than "diagonal."
