The tetragonal lattice is similar to the simple cubic lattice, but one of its primitive vectors is longer or shorter.

The unit cell and the primitive reciprocal lattice vectors:

The primitive vectors of the lattice

And the matrix from this:

The reciprocal lattice

The matrix is easy to determine from this:

So the primitive vectors of the reciprocal lattice are:
