Regular hexagonal bipyramid formulas

Slant height

\(\displaystyle s = \sqrt{h^2 + \frac{a^2 · cot^2(\frac{π}{6})}{4}} \)

Edge length

\(\displaystyle e =\sqrt{\frac{s^2 + a^2}{4}}\)

Total height

\(\displaystyle i = 2 · h \)

Slant areae

\(\displaystyle A_s = \frac{a · s }{ 2} \)

Surface area

\(\displaystyle S = 6 · a·s \)

Perimeter

\(\displaystyle P = 6 ·a \)

Volume

\(\displaystyle V = \frac{a^2· h }{tan(\frac{π}{6})} \)
