Anticube formulas
Surface (\(\small{S}\))
\(\displaystyle S = 2 \cdot (1+\sqrt{3}) \cdot a^2 \;\;\;≈ 5.4641 \cdot a^2\)
Volume (\(\small{V}\))
\(\displaystyle V =\frac{1}{3} \cdot \sqrt{(1 + \sqrt{2})} \cdot \sqrt{(2+\sqrt{2})} \cdot a^3 \;\;\;≈ 0.957 \cdot a^3\)
Height (\(\small{h}\))
\(\displaystyle h = \sqrt{1 - \frac{1}{2+\sqrt{2}}} \cdot a \;\;\;≈0.8409\cdot a\)
