Geometry

Equations

  • Variables:
l ⇒ length of the edges of the hexacosichoron
  • All points (x, y, z, w) that lie on the surcell of a hexacosichoron will satisfy the following equation:
Unknown
total edge length = 720l
total surface area = 300sqrt(3)l2
surcell volume = 50sqrt(2)l3
bulk = Unknown

Projection

Here is a projection of the hexacosichoron. Around the central vertex, which is closest to the 4D viewpoint, are 20 highlighted tetrahedra, joined in the form of an icosahedron. There are two more layers visible closer to the "surface" of the 3D projection, and another three layers which are mirror images of the first three on the back of the 4D shape.
