Augmented chords consist of root, major third, and augmented 5th. An augmented fifth is equivalent to two major thirds. An augmented fifth + a major third = an octave. Therefore, the distance between root and 3rd, 3rd and 5th, and 5th and octave are all the same - a major third.

There are no real 7th chords - augmented chords tend to be associated with the whole-tone scale, which only has 6, not 7 notes. In the 7-note scale, you have 1st (C), 3rd (E), 5th (G), 7th (B), 9th (D), 11th (F), and 13th (A) before you reach the 15th (C), which is 2 octaves above the 1st. In the 6-note scale, you have 1st (C), 3rd (E), 5th (G♯), 7th (C). The 7th note is the octave, and the chord simply repeats.

There aren't distinct inversion shapes - the first inversion of C aug (C E G♯) is (E G♯ C), which is equivalent to (E G♯ B♯) or E aug. So the inversions are identical to using a different root note. In other words, the inversions' shapes are identical to the root position shapes below.

The Major 3rd is virtually always omitted due to its dissonant m9 (m2 above the octave) interval with the diatonic 11th. If the augmented 11th or minor 3rd is used, then it can optionally be present. This is marked by [M3] below.

Major 6th Minor 6th

 

R - 3 - 5 - 6

The only real enharmonically unique 6th chords are more technically called add 6th chords, simply adding the 6th on a basic triad. Other chords have 6 in the name, but aren't unique. The Neapolitan 6th is simply a 1st inversion major triad. The 6/9 chord is covered above as a variant of a ninth chord.

3rd inversion actually is actually a half diminished or minor 7th chord, with R - m3 - d5/P5 - m7.
