Tetrakis Hexahedron (Tetrahexahedron)

Calculators and formulas for tetrakis hexahedron (or tetrahexahedron)

Calculate tetrakis hexahedron


This function calculates various parameters of a tetrakis hexahedron (also known as a tetrahexahedron). Entering of one value is sufficient for the calculation; all other values are calculated from this.

The tetrakis hexahedron is a convex polyhedron composed of 24 isosceles triangles and is one of the Catalan solids. It has 14 corners and 36 edges.

To calculate a tetrakis hexahedron, select the property you know from the menu and enter its value. Then click on the 'Calculate' button.
