You can draw a regular hexagon using only a straightedge and compass by the first building an equilateral triangle?
True...
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.
Why is there a need to use a straightedge and compass to construct geometric figures?
The compass is used to measure angles. The straightedge is used to draw a straight line. The two items together, are used to measure and draw angles and lines in geometric drawings.

Draw a hexagon?
A hexagon can be drawn either with a compass or round object, or free hand. A hexagon has six equal sides and six equal angles. For a perfect hexagon, a compass is recommended. * * * * * While a hexagon does have six sides and six vertices, these need not be equal. If the sides are all equal AND the angles are equal, then the hexagon is a regular hexagon.

no
Is it possible to construct a cube of twice the volume of a 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.
