  • Answer

Three of the edges of a cube are AB‾,BC‾,\overline{AB}, \overline{BC}, and CD‾,\overline{CD}, and AD‾\overline{AD} is an interior diagonal. Points P,Q,P, Q, and RR are on AB‾,BC‾,\overline{AB}, \overline{BC}, and CD‾,\overline{CD}, respectively, so that AP=5,PB=15,BQ=15,AP = 5, PB = 15, BQ = 15, and CR=10.CR = 10. What is the area of the polygon that is the intersection of plane PQRPQR and the cube?
