In [[geometry]], the '''elongated triangular orthobicupola''' is a polyhedron constructed by attaching two regular [[triangular cupola]] into the base of a regular [[hexagonal prism]]. It is an example of [[Johnson solid]].

== Construction ==
The elongated triangular orthobicupola can be constructed from a [[hexagonal prism]] by attaching two regular [[triangular cupola]]e onto its base, covering its hexagonal faces.{{r|rajwade}} This construction process known as [[Elongation (geometry)|elongation]], giving the resulting polyhedron has 8 [[equilateral triangle]]s and 12 squares.{{r|berman}} A [[Convex set|convex]] polyhedron in which all faces are [[Regular polygon|regular]] is [[Johnson solid]], and the elongated triangular orthobicupola is one among them, enumerated as 35th Johnson solid <math> J_{35} </math>.{{r|francis}}

== Properties ==
An elongated triangular orthobicupola with a given edge length <math> a </math> has a surface area, by adding the area of all regular faces:{{r|berman}}
<math display="block"> \left(12 + 2\sqrt{3}\right)a^2 \approx 15.464a^2. </math>
Its volume can be calculated by cutting it off into two triangular cupolae and a hexagonal prism with regular faces, and then adding their volumes up:{{r|berman}}
<math display="block"> \left(\frac{5\sqrt{2}}{3} + \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2}\right)a^3 \approx 4.955a^3. </math>

It has the same [[Point groups in three dimensions|three-dimensional symmetry groups]] as the [[triangular orthobicupola]], the dihedral group <math> D_{3h} </math> of order 12. Its [[dihedral angle]] can be calculated by adding the angle of the triangular cupola and hexagonal prism. The dihedral angle of a hexagonal prism between two adjacent squares is the [[internal angle]] of a regular hexagon <math> 120^\circ = 2\pi/3</math>, and that between its base and square face is <math> \pi/2 = 90^\circ </math>. The dihedral angle of a regular triangular cupola between each triangle and the hexagon is approximately <math> 70.5^\circ </math>, that between each square and the hexagon is <math> 54.7^\circ </math>, and that between square and triangle is <math> 125.3^\circ </math>. The dihedral angle of an elongated triangular orthobicupola between the triangle-to-square and square-to-square, on the edge where the triangular cupola and the prism is attached, is respectively:{{r|johnson}}
<math display="block"> \begin{align}
 \frac{\pi}{2} + 70.5^\circ &\approx 160.5^\circ, \\
 \frac{\pi}{2} + 54.7^\circ &\approx 144.7^\circ.
\end{align} </math>
