The Long Edge of Hexakis Octahedron is the length of the long edge of any of the congruent triangular faces of the Hexakis Octahedron. It is a geometric measurement used in polyhedral studies and calculations.
The calculator uses the formula:
Where:
Explanation: This formula calculates the long edge length based on the truncated cuboctahedron edge measurement using specific mathematical constants and operations.
Details: Accurate calculation of the long edge is crucial for geometric modeling, architectural design, and mathematical studies involving polyhedra and their properties.
Tips: Enter the truncated cuboctahedron edge value in meters. The value must be a positive number greater than zero.
Q1: What is a Hexakis Octahedron?
A: A Hexakis Octahedron is a Catalan solid that is the dual of the truncated cuboctahedron, featuring 48 congruent triangular faces.
Q2: What units should I use for input?
A: The calculator uses meters as the default unit, but you can use any consistent unit of length as the result will be in the same units.
Q3: How accurate is this calculation?
A: The calculation is mathematically precise based on the geometric relationship between the truncated cuboctahedron edge and the long edge of the hexakis octahedron.
Q4: Can this formula be used for other polyhedra?
A: No, this specific formula applies only to the relationship between the truncated cuboctahedron and hexakis octahedron.
Q5: What if I get an error in calculation?
A: Ensure you've entered a valid positive number for the truncated cuboctahedron edge and that your input doesn't contain any special characters or letters.
