What is a Pentagonal Cupola?
A cupola is a polyhedron with two opposite polygons, of which one has twice as many vertices as the other and with alternating triangles and quadrangles as side faces. When all faces of the cupola are regular, then the cupola itself is regular and is a Johnson solid. There are three regular cupolae, the triangular, the square, and the pentagonal cupola. A Pentagonal Cupola has 12 faces, 25 edges, and 15 vertices. Its top surface is a regular pentagon and the base surface is a regular decagon.
How to Calculate Height of Pentagonal Cupola?
Height of Pentagonal Cupola calculator uses Height of Pentagonal Cupola = Edge Length of Pentagonal Cupola*sqrt(1-(1/4*cosec(pi/5)^(2))) to calculate the Height of Pentagonal Cupola, The Height of Pentagonal Cupola formula is defined as the vertical distance from the pentagonal face to the opposite decagonal face of the Pentagonal Cupola. Height of Pentagonal Cupola is denoted by h symbol.
