Formulas for the arrowhead quadrilateral


Long side a


\(\displaystyle a =\frac{b·sin\left(\frac{β}{2}\right)}{sin\left(\frac{α}{2}\right)} \)

Short side b


\(\displaystyle b =\frac{a·sin\left(\frac{α}{2}\right)}{sin\left(\frac{β}{2}\right)} \)

Angles

\(\displaystyle α+β+2·γ= 360°\)

Inner length

\(\displaystyle m= \frac{a·sin(γ)} { sin\left(\frac{β}{2}\right) }\)

Missing length

\(\displaystyle n= b·sin\left(\frac{β}{2-90°}\right) \)

Length

\(\displaystyle l= m+n\)

Height

\(\displaystyle h=2·\sqrt{b^2-n^2}\)

Perimeter

\(\displaystyle h=2·\sqrt{b^2-n^2}\)

Area

\(\displaystyle A=\frac{l·h}{2}-\frac{n·h}{2}\)
