Hexagonal Prism Height Calculator

Find the height of a regular hexagonal prism from its side length and volume, plus base area and surface area.

Input

Enter the side length and volume of a regular hexagonal prism to solve for its height. Base area, surface area, and lateral area are shown too.

Side length a

Volume V

Height h

4.811252

Base area

41.569219

Surface area

198.608493

Lateral area

115.470054

Lengths use the input unit; areas are squared and volume is cubed.

The base area uses the regular hexagon formula (3√3/2)×a², where a is the side length.
Height h is found by dividing the volume V by the base area: h = V / base area.
The lateral area is 6×a×h and the surface area is 2×base area + lateral area.
Lengths use the same unit as the input, while areas are squared and volume is cubed.
