\[d = a\sqrt{3}\]
Variables
dspace diagonal of the cube (m)
aedge length of the cube (m)
Description
What is this formula?
This formula calculates the space diagonal of a cube. The space diagonal connects two opposite vertices through the interior of the cube.
When to use it
Use this formula when determining the maximum internal distance between two points inside a cube.
Example
If a cube has an edge length of 5 m:
d = 5√3 ≈ 8.66 m
