Draw a line, set it’s length to 1, draw another line starting from the end of the first line, set the lentgth to 1, and the angle between the two lines to 108 degrees. Do this 6 times and you have a hexagon 🙂

But with the 2.0 release you will have dimensioning and constraints, that will make this even easier.
