Worked solution
Part A reasoning
Use precise incidence conditions; diagrams alone do not prove spatial relationships.
Calculate or simplify this relation.
The three selected points are noncollinear and determine a unique plane.
Part B reasoning
Choose the correct surface or volume formula and keep units and similarity powers consistent.
Calculate or simplify this relation.
Do not omit the factor one third.
A: The requested value is 1. B: The requested value is 81.
Checks and common pitfalls: The three selected points are noncollinear and determine a unique plane. Do not omit the factor one third.
