Topic: squaring up a hexagonal greenhouse?????

[agapanthus]

Have finally managed to erected my 2nd hand hexagonal greenhouse and finally got it level....but is there an easyish way to square it up??? Am useless at geometry ??? ???

If all the sides are equal then all the diagonals are equal too. So if you measure from corner to corner across the middle, when the thing is up properly then it should not matter which corner to corner you measure they  should all be equal.  Also every angle should be equal (60 degrees). I have an adjustable T square which I used to make my Gazebos, which are also hexagonal. The square cost £! from Aldi.
