If you fold up the sides the container holds exactly 1L. {nl} Whats the length of a?

 

 

 

B=a2hh2+(a2)2=a2h2=a2(a2)2h2=a2a24h2=34a2B=a2a23h=a23B=a243

 

sin(60)=a2r=32a2r=32ar=3ra=13r=a3

 

r2+h2=a2h2=a2r2h2=a2(a3)2h2=a2a23h2=23a2h=23a

 

V=13Bh|B=a243h=23aV=13(a243)(23a)V=13a242aV=212a3212a3=Va3=122Va3=122V22a3=1222Va3=62Va=362V|V=1l=1 dm3a=3621 dm3a=38.48528137424 dm3a=2.03964890266 dm

 

The length of a is 2.04 dm
