Bipyramid Formulas
Slant height (\(\small{s}\))
\(\displaystyle s = \sqrt{h^2 + \frac{a^2 · cot^2(\frac{π}{n})}{4}} \)
Edge length (\(\small{e}\))
\(\displaystyle e =\sqrt{\frac{s^2 + a^2}{4}}\)
Total height (\(\small{i}\))
\(\displaystyle i = 2 · h \)
Slant areae (\(\small{A_s}\))
\(\displaystyle A_s = \frac{a · s }{ 2} \)
Surface area (\(\small{S}\))
\(\displaystyle S = n · a·s \)
Perimeter (\(\small{P}\))
\(\displaystyle P = n ·a \)
Volume (\(\small{V}\))
\(\displaystyle V = \frac{2 · n · a^2· h }{12 · tan(\frac{π}{n})} \)
