The Volume of the box has to equal 64
because all the sides have to equal 12
and 12/3 = 4
This is the concept of scale factors, we are required to calculate for the volume of the smaller solid if the larger solid has a volume of 1975.
Area scale factor=(linear scale factor)^2
thus;
Area scale factor=(area of larger solid)/(area of smaller solid)=1057/384
linear scale factor=√(1057/384)=5.7019
the volume scale factor=(linear scale factor)^3=[volume of larger solid]/[volume of smaller solid]
The volume scale factor=(5.7019)^3=185.3772
therefore;
volume of smaller solid=[volume of larger solid]/[volume scale factor]
=1795/185.3772
=9.683
The answer is 9.683 yd^3
5π/12 = (5 · 180°) : 12 = 75°
cos 75° = cos ( 45° + 30° )= cos 45° cos 30° - sin 45° sin 30° =
=√2/2 * √3/2 - √2/2 * 1/2 =

=(2.4495 - 1.4142): 4 = 0.258825
