Find the volume of the largest rectangular box with edges parallel to the axes that can be inscribed in the ellipsoid 4x2ā+1y2ā+25z2ā=1 Hint: By symmetry, you can restrict your attention to the first octant (where x,y,zā„0 ), and assume your volume has the form V=8xyz. Then arguing by symmetry, you need only look for points which achieve the maximum which lie in the first octant. Maximum volume:
