It depends on the orientation, but normally it is the length of the rectangular faces.
The formula for calculating the volume of a hexagonal prism is to take the area of the hexagon, then multiply it by the height of the prism.
If the side of a hexagonal prism is of length s units, then its cross sectional height is s*sqrt(3) units.
To find the volume of a hexagonal prism, you can use the formula: Volume = Base Area × Height. First, ensure you have the area of the hexagonal base and the height of the prism. Multiply the area of the base by the height to obtain the volume. This formula applies to any prism, as long as you know the base area and height.
There are 2 hexagonal faces: the top and the bottom. All the other 6 are rectangles (or squares, depending on the height of the prism).
Yes, a hexagonal prism is a type of prism.
