Required the largest cube that can be placed in a conical cup 20 and 12 in. in diameter. Solution. (1) Let ACB represent a section of the conical cup andcube, where EF representsthe diameter of the cup onwhich the lower side of thecube rests and also thediagonal of the bottom ofthe cube. (2) DC = 20 in., DB=5 in. (3) Let the edge of the cube=#. (4) Then DC : DB :: TC : TF, or 20 : 6 :: 20—* : (120—6*)-r-20. (5) But the diagonal of the side of thecube is (120—6*)4-10—x^/2f whence we find x=+ FIG. 114. MENSURA TION. 225
