First, draw the equilateral triangle ABC, and its altitude AI. Extend the sides AB and AC in such way that the extended parts to be equal in length with the length of these sides. Extend also the altitude AI in such way that the extended part to be twice in length as the altitude length. Label their end points , started from the point C, respectively with D, K, and G. From points D, K, and G, draw the parallel lines to BG, BC, and CD. Label their intersections respectively with E and F. A hexagon is formed, the hexagon BCDEFG, where its sides are equal in length with the length sides of the equilateral triangle ABC.

how to make a regular hexagon out of 6 equilateral triangles?
Put one angle of each triangle at the center of the hexagon.
How do you make a regular hexagon into an equilateral triangle?
A hexagon has 6 sides, all equal to one another, which means it has symmetry. Simply fold the hexagon until it makes a triangle _ / \ \_/
How do you make an irregular hexagon out of 6 equilateral triangles?
You Cant. Because A Hexagon Is A Six Sided Shape. And An Equilateral Triangle Is Equal. So You Can Because Everything (As In Sides And Angles Will Be Congruent)
How many equilateral triangles in a hexagon?
Infinitely many. When you have one equilateral triangle, you can join up the midpoints of its sides to make into 4 more equilateral triangles. And then each one of those can be split up and so on.
Is it possible to make an obtuse equilateral triangle?
No. It is not possible to make a equilateral triangle that is obtuse.
