The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to establish a relationship between the volume \( V \) of the cuboid and the areas of its three adjacent faces, which are given as \( x \), \( y \), and \( z \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Dimensions of the Cuboid**: Let the dimensions of the cuboid be: - Length = \( l \) - Breadth = \( b \) - Height = \( h \) 2. **Identify the Areas of the Adjacent Faces**: The areas of the three adjacent faces of the cuboid can be expressed as: - Area of face 1 (length and height) = \( l \times h = z \) - Area of face 2 (length and breadth) = \( l \times b = x \) - Area of face 3 (breadth and height) = \( b \times h = y \) 3. **Express the Volume of the Cuboid**: The volume \( V \) of the cuboid is given by the formula: \[ V = l \times b \times h \] 4. **Relate the Areas to the Dimensions**: From the areas, we can express \( l \), \( b \), and \( h \) in terms of \( x \), \( y \), and \( z \): - From \( l \times b = x \), we can express \( l \) as \( l = \frac{x}{b} \). - From \( b \times h = y \), we can express \( h \) as \( h = \frac{y}{b} \). - From \( l \times h = z \), we can express \( h \) as \( h = \frac{z}{l} \). 5. **Substitute to Find Volume**: Substitute the expressions for \( l \) and \( h \) into the volume formula: \[ V = l \times b \times h = l \times b \times \frac{y}{b} = l \times y \] Now substitute \( l \) from \( l = \frac{x}{b} \): \[ V = \frac{x}{b} \times y \] Rearranging gives: \[ V \times b = x \times y \] 6. **Establish the Relationship**: Now, we can find the relationship between \( V \), \( x \), \( y \), and \( z \): \[ V^2 = \sqrt{xyz} \] Squaring both sides gives: \[ V^2 = \frac{xyz}{b^2} \] Thus, the relationship can be simplified to: \[ V^2 = xyz \] ### Final Relation: The correct relation between \( V \), \( x \), \( y \), and \( z \) is: \[ V^2 = xyz \]
