Solution
Here, a=b≠c
And, α=β=90°, γ=120°
Every unit cell is structured as follows
In the bottom layer the central atomic surrounded by six other identical atoms.
In the middle layer at height c/2 three atoms are positioned.
In the top layer,at height C atomic distribution is similar to that of the bottom layer.
