The volume of a cube depends on the length of its sides. This can be written in function notation as v(s). What is the best interpretation of V(3)=27?

A. 3 sides of the cube have a total length of 27 feet.
B. A cube with a volume of 3 cubic feet has side lengths of 27 feet.
C. A cube with side lengths of 3 feet has a volume of 27 cubic feet,
D. 3 of these cubes will have a total volume of 27 cubic feet.

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2

+2+=+%2836%2fx%29%5e2+

+2+=+1296%2fx%5e2+

++x%5e2+=+1296%2f2+=+648+
