Augmented hexagonal prism
open-in-new
<p>In <a href="/facts/Geometry/wTQf5ffQ">geometry</a>, the augmented hexagonal prism is one of the <a href="/facts/Johnson_solid/8SR7CyNz">Johnson solids</a> (<i>J</i>54). As the name suggests, it can be constructed by augmenting a hexagonal <a href="/facts/Prism_(geometry)/baIRRkCy">prism</a> by attaching a <a href="/facts/Square_pyramid/wDetDohM">square pyramid</a> (<i>J</i>1) to one of its equatorial faces. When two or three such pyramids are attached, the result may be a <a href="/facts/Parabiaugmented_hexagonal_prism/9nKmL9kn">parabiaugmented hexagonal prism</a> (<i>J</i>55), a <a href="/facts/Metabiaugmented_hexagonal_prism/fFM7FrGD">metabiaugmented hexagonal prism</a> (<i>J</i>56), or a <a href="/facts/Triaugmented_hexagonal_prism/G2QoLwN2">triaugmented hexagonal prism</a> (<i>J</i>57). </p>
