3.What is the shape of the envelope in Twigg’s model for which the
resulting tetrahedron is regular?
4.In Twigg’s envelope model, supposeAB =2aandBC =2b.
What is the volume of the resulting tetrahedron?^3
(^3) This is an isosceles tetrahedron with face 2 a,√a (^2) +b (^2) , and√a (^2) +b (^2). Its volume is (^49) a 2 √b (^2) −a (^2).
