How can you measure a hexagon with no protractor or ruler?
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.
How to make a circle by using only ruler and pencil?
There is a hole in the ruler (i.e.) circle just make the circle using that
Is it possible to construct a regular hexagon using only a straightedge and a compass?
yes
How is a rhombus and kites the same and different?
Because a rhombus is a shape and a kite is a object that is the shape of a rhombus. (only sometimes they are not a rhombus)
Is a parallelogram sometimes a rhombus always a rhombus or never a rhombus?
sometimes, only if all sides are congruent
How do you make a twenty degree angle using a ruler and a compass?
It is possible to construct a 20 degree angle using only Ruler and Compass. I happened to stumble across a method that is highly accurate. It is posted on my blog. Check the related link

How do you construct a 10 degree angle with a compass?
A 10 degree angle cannot be constructed using only a compass and straight edge.
Is it possible to construct a cube of twice the volume of the given cube using only a straightedge and compass?
No, it is not possible to construct a cube of twice teh volume of a given cube using only a straightedge and a compass.

What tools are used to construct congruent line segments?
straightedge (not a ruler, can't have markings) and compass. all of geo only these 2
Are the diagonals of a rhombus are always perpendicular?
No. The diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular only if the rhombus is a square.
