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.
