It can be seen as a truncated hexagonal hosohedron, represented by Schläfli symbol t{2,6}. Alternately it can be seen as the Cartesian product of a regular hexagon and a line segment, and represented by the product {6}×{}. The dual of a hexagonal prism is a hexagonal bipyramid. The symmetry group of a right hexagonal prism is D 6h of order 24.
The surface area of a right prism is: +, where B is the area of the base, h the height, and P the base perimeter. The surface area of a right prism whose base is a regular n-sided polygon with side length s, and with height h, is therefore: = +.
To calculate the formula for the surface area and volume of a gyrobifastigium with regular faces and with edge length , one may adapt the corresponding formulae for the triangular prism. Its surface area can be obtained by summing the area of four equilateral triangles and four squares, whereas its volume by slicing it off into two triangular ...
A sphere of radius r has surface area 4πr 2.. The surface area (symbol A) of a solid object is a measure of the total area that the surface of the object occupies. [1] The mathematical definition of surface area in the presence of curved surfaces is considerably more involved than the definition of arc length of one-dimensional curves, or of the surface area for polyhedra (i.e., objects with ...
The Wigner–Seitz cell of the primitive hexagonal lattice is the hexagonal prism. In mathematics, it is known as the hexagonal prismatic honeycomb . The shape of the Wigner–Seitz cell for any Bravais lattice takes the form of one of the 24 Voronoi polyhedra.
The augmented hexagonal prism is constructed by attaching one equilateral square pyramid onto the square face of a hexagonal prism, a process known as augmentation. [1] This construction involves the removal of the prism square face and replacing it with the square pyramid, so that there are eleven faces: four equilateral triangles, five squares, and two regular hexagons.

In geometry, the hexagonal antiprism is the 4th in an infinite set of antiprisms formed by an even-numbered sequence of triangle sides closed by two polygon caps. Antiprisms are similar to prisms except the bases are twisted relative to each other, and that the side faces are triangles, rather than quadrilaterals .
In geometry, the triaugmented hexagonal prism is one of the Johnson solids (J 57). As the name suggests, it can be constructed by triply augmenting a hexagonal prism by attaching square pyramids ( J 1 ) to three of its nonadjacent equatorial faces.
