== Geometry ==
 
-
A '''square dipyramid''' is a special case of the [[tetrapyramid]] where the base is a [[square pyramid]]. It is also a special case of the [[dipyramid]] where the base is a [[square]].
 
-
 
-
The square dipyramid is interesting because the numbers of elements it has (6, 13, 13, 6) are symmetrical, however, since the shape is not [[regular]] it cannot have a [[dual]]. If duals were defined for irregular shapes, this shape may be a self-dual{{hmm}}.

=== Equations ===
 
-
*Variables:
 
-
<blockquote>''l'' ⇒ length of each line in the square dipyramid</blockquote>
 
-
 
-
*The [[hypervolume]]s of a square dipyramid are given by:
 
-
<blockquote>total edge length = 13''l''<br>
 
-
total surface area = ''l''<sup>2</sup>(1 + 6√3)<br>
 
-
surcell volume = ''l''<sup>2</sup>3<sup>-1</sup>√3 + ''l''<sup>3</sup>3<sup>-1</sup>√2<br>
 
-
bulk = ''Unknown''</blockquote>
 
-
 
-
*The [[realmic]] [[cross-section]]s (''n'') of a square dipyramid are:
 
-
<blockquote>[!x,!y] ⇒ [[triangular prism]]<br>
 
-
[!z,!w] ⇒ square pyramid</blockquote>
 
-
 
-
=== Net ===
 
-
The net of a square dipyramid is two square based pyramids attached at their bases with four [[tetrahedron]]s each attached to another face of one of the square based pyramids.
