Use TETRA as the file name.
Length of One Side (A) Surface Area (S) Volume (V)
A
7 cm cm 2 cm 3
10 cm cm 2 cm 3
15 cm cm 2 cm 3
The following are the formulas used for calculating surface area S and volume V
of a regular tetrahedron for which the length of one side is known.
2
S = 3 A 2 , V = –––– A 3

Use the following key operations when inputting the program.
Length of One Side A .. !W4(?)aaA6(g)5(:)
Surface Area S ............ !9d*aAx6(g)5(^)
Volume V ..................... !9c/bc*aAMd
Compare this with the program for calculating the surface area and volume of a
regular octahedron.
Length of One Side A .. !W4(?)aaA6(g)5(:)
Surface Area S ............ c*!9d*aAx6(g)5(^)
Volume V ..................... !9c/d*aAMd
As you can see, you can produce the TETRA program by making the following
changes in the OCTA program.
• Deleting c * (underlined using a wavy line above)
• Changing d to b c (underlined using a solid line above)
Let’s edit OCTA to produce the TETRA program.
1. Edit the program name.
6 (g)2(REN)TETRA
w
2. Edit the program contents.
