Answered by MJS last updated on 25/Jul/18

easy to understand with 4+1 spheres  let radius of the spheres = 1  the angle of the side of the cone is 45°  its radius=height is 1+2(√2)  (cut through the centers of 2 opposite bottom  spheres and the top sphere, it′s easy to see)  volume=((25+22(√2))/3)π    v(R)=((25+22(√2))/3)πR^3     now someone please try with 3+1 and 5+1 spheres!

Yes Sir, correct answer.  V=(((1+2(√2))^3 πR^3 )/3) .

$${Yes}\:{Sir},\:{correct}\:{answer}. \\ $$$${V}=\frac{\left(\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{2}\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}\right)^{\mathrm{3}} \pi{R}^{\mathrm{3}} }{\mathrm{3}}\:. \\ $$
