The Icosahedron
The surface of an Icosahedron consists of twenty equilateral triangles and is therefore one of the five Platonic solids.
The following elements of a Icosahedron are calculated if one of them is given:
- Edge a
- Apothem h1
- Altitude h2
- Circumradius ru
- Inradius ri
- Volume V
- Surface S
Example:
Given:
¯¯¯¯¯¯
Circumradius rc = 1
Results:
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Edge a = 1,0514622
Apothem h1 = 0,910593
Altitude h2 = 2
Inradius ri = 0,79465447
Volume V = 2,5361507
Surface S = 9,5745414
