What are Platonic Solids?
In three-dimensional space, a Platonic solid is a regular, convex polyhedron. It is constructed by congruent (identical in shape and size), regular (all angles equal and all sides equal), polygonal faces with the same number of faces meeting at each vertex. Five solids who meet this criteria are Tetrahedron {3,3} , Cube {4,3} , Octahedron {3,4} , Dodecahedron {5,3} , Icosahedron {3,5} ; where in {p, q}, p represents the number of edges in a face and q represents the number of edges meeting at a vertex; {p, q} is the Schläfli symbol.
How to Calculate Insphere Radius of Octahedron?
Insphere Radius of Octahedron calculator uses Insphere Radius of Octahedron = Edge Length of Octahedron/sqrt(6) to calculate the Insphere Radius of Octahedron, Insphere Radius of Octahedron formula is defined as the radius of the sphere that is contained by the Octahedron in such a way that all the faces just touching the sphere. Insphere Radius of Octahedron is denoted by ri symbol.
