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.

Equations

  • Variables:
l ⇒ length of each line in the square dipyramid
total edge length = 13l
total surface area = l2(1 + 6√3)
surcell volume = l23-1√3 + l33-1√2
bulk = Unknown
[!x,!y] ⇒ triangular prism
[!z,!w] ⇒ square pyramid

Net

The net of a square dipyramid is two square based pyramids attached at their bases with four tetrahedrons each attached to another face of one of the square based pyramids.
