Inner Width Formula:
| From: | To: |
The Inner Width of Rectangular Hexagon is the length of the inner edge which is parallel to the width of the Rectangular Hexagon. It represents the remaining width after removing the cut rectangular portion from the original rectangle.
The calculator uses the simple formula:
Where:
Explanation: The inner width is calculated by subtracting the short width from the total width of the rectangular hexagon.
Details: Calculating the inner width is essential for geometric analysis, architectural design, and engineering applications involving rectangular hexagon shapes. It helps determine the internal dimensions and proportions of the shape.
Tips: Enter the width and short width values in meters. Both values must be positive numbers, and the width must be greater than the short width for a valid calculation.
Q1: What units should I use for the inputs?
A: The calculator uses meters as the default unit, but you can use any consistent unit of length as long as both inputs use the same unit.
Q2: Can the short width be equal to the total width?
A: No, the short width must be less than the total width to form a valid rectangular hexagon shape with positive inner width.
Q3: What if I get a negative inner width result?
A: A negative result indicates invalid input where the short width is greater than the total width, which is not possible for a rectangular hexagon.
Q4: How precise should my measurements be?
A: For most applications, measurements to the nearest millimeter (0.001m) are sufficient, but the calculator supports up to 4 decimal places for precision.
Q5: Can this formula be used for other polygon shapes?
A: This specific formula applies only to rectangular hexagons. Other polygon shapes have different geometric relationships and require different formulas.
