how to divide a circle in 6 equal parts

Please bear with me, I'm a new onshape user 😉
I looked in the forum for how to divide a circle in equal parts, and found that I could use split and equal.
But this isn't working for me,..  see clip what I did. 
Create sketch
draw circle
slice circle in 6 
select parts
press = (equal)

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

    One way would be to put in the chords and set them equal to eachother


    When you use the equal constraint in the way you show, it's just setting the radii to be equal. Depending on what you're trying to accomplish, the circular pattern feature might get you where you're trying to go.
