Hexagonal Pyramid Formulas
To calculate the properties of a hexagonal pyramid, we use the following formulas:
- Volume (V):
V = (1/3) × Abase × h - Area of Base (Abase):
Abase = (3 × √3 / 2) × a2 - Apothem of Base (r):
r = a × √3 / 2 - Slant Height (s):
s = √(h2 + r2) - Lateral Surface Area (Alateral):
Alateral = 3 × a × s - Total Surface Area (Atotal):
Atotal = Abase + Alateral
Where:
- a = Length of the base edge
- h = Height of the pyramid
- r = Apothem of the hexagonal base
- s = Slant height of the pyramid
