The edge length of a Snub Disphenoid is the length of any edge of this specific polyhedron. A Snub Disphenoid is a convex polyhedron with 12 equilateral triangles as faces and is one of the Johnson solids.
The calculator uses the formula:
Where:
Explanation: This formula calculates the edge length from the given volume using the cubic root relationship, with the constant representing the volume-to-edge-length ratio for a Snub Disphenoid.
Details: Calculating the edge length is essential for understanding the geometric properties of Snub Disphenoids, including surface area, symmetry, and other dimensional characteristics in mathematical and engineering applications.
Tips: Enter the volume of the Snub Disphenoid in cubic meters. The value must be positive and valid (volume > 0).
Q1: What is a Snub Disphenoid?
A: A Snub Disphenoid is a convex polyhedron with 12 equilateral triangle faces, 18 edges, and 8 vertices. It is one of the Johnson solids (J84).
Q2: Why is the constant 0.85949364619130053 used?
A: This constant represents the volume of a Snub Disphenoid with unit edge length, derived from its specific geometric properties.
