In circle $\theta_1$ with radius $1$, circles $\phi_1, \phi_2, \dots, \phi_8$, with equal radii, are drawn such that for $1 \le i \le 8$, $\phi_i$ is tangent to $\omega_1$, $\phi_{i-1}$, and $\phi_{i+1}$, where $\phi_0 = \phi_8$ and $\phi_1 = \phi_9$. There exists a circle $\omega_2$ such that $\omega_1 \neq \omega_2$ and $\omega_2$ is tangent to $\phi_i$ for $1 \le i \le 8$. The radius of $\omega_2$ can be expressed in the form $a - b\sqrt{c} -d\sqrt{e - \sqrt{f}} + g \sqrt{h - j \sqrt{k}}$ such that $a, b, \dots, k$ are positive integers and the numbers $e, f, k, \gcd(h, j)$ are squarefree.

Let $ \mathcal{F}$ be a family of hexagons $ H$ satisfying the following properties:
i) $ H$ has parallel opposite sides.
ii) Any 3 vertices of $ H$ can be covered with a strip of width 1.
