1. The lateral edge of a regular hexagonal pyramid is two times the length of the base edge. If the apothem of the base is 8 cm, find the altitude and the volume of a cone inscribed in the pyramid.
2. If the diameter of the base remains constant, by what factor should the altitude be multiplied to produce a cone with twice volume as the original.
3.If the altitude of a cone remains constant, by what factor should the diameter be multiplied in order to construct a cone with a volume that is triple the original.
