you know what the interior angle measurements are for a hexagon? You can measure
the angles of the hexagon using the above software. First click the hydrogens
back on. Click on tools --> measures. Then click with the left mouse button
on three consecutive vertex points. The lower left hand corner will give the angle

which explain in greater detail how to use this software package and what all
those numbers at the lower left mean.
