Looks like to me four r radius= 1 diagonal

4r=sqrt2* 362pm
solve for r.

To calculate the radius of cooper in face centred cubic unit cell there is a simple formula let a be the edge length then the formula is a/2rootunder2 or a/under root8 then according to question..r equal to 362/2root under 2 hope you understand
