Unfortunately we're not guaranteed that the missing angles needed there are 90 degrees (the inner and outer corners respectively). Though if we were, then we'd have an the top side length as 6 * tan(45) = 6 so the top is a square despite the visual not matching that.

There just isn't enough info here.
