Formulas for a hexagon

Perimeter \(P\)

\(\displaystyle P = a · 6 \)

Area \(A\)

\(\displaystyle A =\frac{a^2 ·\sqrt{3} · 3}{2} \)    \(\displaystyle ≈\frac{a^2 ·5.2}{2} \)

Short Diagonale \(e\)

\(\displaystyle e = a · \sqrt{3} \)

Long Diagonale \(f\)

\(\displaystyle f = 2 · a \)

Radius \(ri\) of the inner circle

\(\displaystyle ri=\frac{ \sqrt{3} · a}{2}\)

Edge length \(a\)

\(\displaystyle a = \frac{f}{2} \)
\(\displaystyle a= \frac{e}{\sqrt{3}} \)
\(\displaystyle a= \frac{P}{6} \)

Height \(h\) = short diagonal \(e\)
