well ,
u see for a given amount of volumr a circle is supposed to have minimum area.
now as we will go on increasing the no. of sides in a polygon
then it will tend to a circle,reducing the area...

in this question u have two hexagon,as such when it is put inside a circle
then if it forms a dodecagon(12 sided figure)
it would have the minimum area

now the other half has the application of MAXIMA n MINIMA
(one of the part of calculas),this however is not known by me.

plss tell me if my logic is crt...

IIT- Imposible Is This(atleast fr meeeeeeeee)
