Equations
- Variables:
l ⇒ length of edges of the octahedron
- The hypervolumes of a octahedron are given by:
total edge length = 12l
surface area = 2sqrt(3)l2
volume = sqrt(3)-1l3
- The planar cross-sections (n) of an octahedron are:
[!x, !y, !z] ⇒ square of side (sqrt(2)-1l-abs(n)) rotated by 45°
Segmentation
The octahedron of side √2 may be segmented into 8× irregular tetrahedron with sides 3×1, 3×22-1.
