This is Pythagorean's Theorem, with one leg being 10 and the hypotenuse being 16.  Using those values in the theorem looks like this:
10^{2} + b^{2} = 16^{2}
and 100+ b^{2} =256
and b^{2} =256-100
so b^{2} =156
Take the square root of both sides to find that b = 12.5

Using proportions, it is found that the total volume of the glass is of 216 cm³.

<h3>What is the missing information?</h3>

The problem is incomplete, but researching it on a search engine, it is found that:

  • Initially, the glass is 1/3 full.
  • After adding 63 cm³ of orange of juice, the glass is 5/8 full.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct(when both increase or both decrease) or inverse proportional(when one increases and the other decreases, or vice versa), can be built to find the desired measures in the problem, or equations to find these measures.

Considering the volume of the glass as x, and the information given in the problem, the following equation can be built:

\frac{x}{3} + 63 = \frac{5x}{8}

We solve for x to find the volume of the glass as follows:

\frac{5x}{8} - \frac{x}{3} = 63

\frac{15x - 8x}{24} = 63

Then, applying cross multiplication:

7x = 24 x 63

Simplifying by 7:

x = 24 x 9

x = 216 cm³.

The total volume of the glass is of 216 cm³.

Step-by-step explanation:

3/8 is 0.375 as a decimal

11/12 is 0.92 as a decimal

so 3/8 is less than 11/12

It always helps to turn them into decimals...
