A hexagon has six sides and six angles [picture a six sided circle} now a circle has 360 degrees so a hexagon breaks the 360 degrees into 6 angles of 60 degrees each [360 divided by 6 angles] so each angle is 60 degrees but the cuts on each end of the individual sides has to be half of 60 degrees to fit together to form a 60 degree angle. so cut each end at a 30 degree angle. draw a hexagon while reading this and it will be plain as day. same thing for any other shape simply divide 360 degrees by number of sides to get degrees of angles and then halve the angles to get the angle for each end cut.
30 degree angle for each piece.
360 / 6 = 60 60 / 2 = 30 for each of the two pieces
proof: we all know we cut 45's to make a square
360 / 4 = 90
90 / 2 = 45
to make an quilateral hexagon (all the angles identical) each internal angle should be 108 degrees.
Each exterior angle is 45 degrees (interior angle = 135 degrees).

To cut a 45-degree angle on a piece of wood, you can use a miter saw or a miter box with a handsaw. Measure and mark the angle on the wood, then align the saw blade to cut along the marked line at a 45-degree angle. Make sure to wear safety goggles and follow proper safety precautions when cutting the wood.
To accurately cut a 45-degree angle with a table saw, you need to adjust the saw blade to a 45-degree angle using the bevel adjustment on the saw. Then, use a miter gauge or a miter sled to guide the wood through the saw at the correct angle. Make sure to measure and mark the wood accurately before cutting to ensure precision.

To make a desktop out of wood, you will need to measure and cut the wood to the desired size, sand the wood to smooth out any rough edges, and then assemble the pieces using wood glue and screws. You can also add a finish to protect the wood and enhance its appearance.
To make a wood box, you will need to measure and cut the wood pieces to the desired dimensions. Then, assemble the pieces using wood glue and nails or screws. Sand the edges for a smooth finish and apply a wood finish or paint if desired.
