A box with a square base is having a volume of 8 cubic meters. Let x be the length of the side of the square base and height of the box. What are the possible measurements of a side of the square base if the height should be longer than a side.

Answer 1

x^2 h = 8
x = sqrt(8/h)
if h = x
x = h = 2
if x > h, not allowed
if x < h
then h > 2
so
x < 2
