There are four derived values for TLEs and Latest TLEs: period, SMA, apogee height, perigee height. They may not be calculated how the user expects, so they should be documented. The following formulas come from the SpaceTrack website:
period = 1440/n
Using mu, the standard gravitational parameter for the earth (398600.4418), semi-major axis "a" = (mu/(n2pi/(24*3600))^2)^(1/3)
Using semi-major axis "a", eccentricity "e", and the Earth's radius in km, apogee = (a * (1 + e))- 6378.135
Using semi-major axis "a", eccentricity "e", and the Earth's radius in km, perigee = (a * (1 - e))- 6378.135
Perhaps those TLE-related classes would include getters for apogee/perigee radius as well.
