Truncated Octahedron
Some useful geometrical facts. |
 |
In the following we write for the square root of a number the expression "sqrt(ZAHL)"
conforming to the syntax used in POV-Ray.
|
Dimensions
Length of an edge: a. |
The radius of circumsphere:
R = a / 2 * sqrt( 10 );
The radius of edgesphere (tangent to edges):
Re = a * 3/2;
The angle between hexagon and hexagon: ~ 109,471°
Face_Angle = degrees(acos(-1/3));
The angle between hexagon and square: ~ 125,26°
Edge_Angle = degrees(acos(-1/sqrt(3)));
