Dodecahedron Formulas


Volume (\(\small{V}\))

\(\displaystyle V=\frac{ a^3}{4}·(15+7·\sqrt{5})\)

Surface (\(\small{S}\))

\(\displaystyle S= 3 · a^2 · \sqrt{25+10·\sqrt{5}}\)

Circumradius (\(\small{R_c}\))

\(\displaystyle R_c=\frac{a}{4} · \sqrt{3} ·(1+\sqrt{5}) \)

Midradius (\(\small{R_m}\))

\(\displaystyle R_m=\frac{a}{4} · 3 +\sqrt{5} \)

Inradius (\(\small{R_i}\))

\(\displaystyle R_i=\frac{a}{2} · \sqrt{\frac{25+11·\sqrt{5}}{10}} \)

Diagonal (\(\small{d}\))

\(\displaystyle d=2 · R_c \)

Height (\(\small{h}\))

\(\displaystyle h=2 · R_i \)
