Measuring implies using a measuring device of some kind. If you mean to construct a hexagon without a protractor or ruler, that's different. Constructions in geometry require only a compass and a straightedge (a ruler, but you ignore the numbers).
A hexagon can be made of 6 equilateral triangles; choose any length for the side and construct them connected together, using only the compass to set the length and the straightedge to draw straight lines between points.

What is the difference between a ruler postulate and a protractor postulate?
a ruler measures the distance and a protractor measures the angles
What can you use to measure angles other than a protractor?
A ruler. Add a line to make the angle into a triangle, measure the sides and use trigonometry.
What is a protractor angle?
A "protractor" is a device that can be used to draw angles of a specified size, or measure the size of unknown angles, in the same way that a "ruler" is used to do the same thing with lines.
How do you measure shapes with a protractor?
A protractor is used to measure angles.

How do I measure a right angle?
A ruler
What is the measure of one angle in a hexagon?
It depends, because a hexagon does not have to look like a regular hexagon. If you are referring to a regular hexagon, the measure of each angle is 120o . If you are referring yo an irregular hexagon, you're going to have to use a protractor for that.
What are the three things used to measure angles?
protractor radian ruler
Can you measure angles with a ruler?
No, a ruler is used only to measure length, width or height. You must use a protractor in order to measure the degrees in an angle.
How can you show that all sides and angles of a hexagon are congruent without using a ruler or a protractor?
You can do that by simply proving that the hexagon is a regular hexagon. You could do this by dividing the hexagon into 6 equilateral triangles of the same size successfully that tesselate to form a hexagon, thus proving that all sides are equal.

What is an angle ruler?
An angle ruler is a tool used to measuring angles like a protractor. An angle ruler is more accurate than a protractor.

No
