Given three congruent rectangles in the space. Their centers coincide, but the planes they lie in are mutually perpendicular. For any two of the three rectangles, the line of intersection of the planes of these two rectangles contains one midparallel of one rectangle and one midparallel of the other rectangle, and these two midparallels have different lengths. Consider the convex polyhedron whose vertices are the vertices of the rectangles.
a.) What is the volume of this polyhedron ?
b.) Can this polyhedron turn out to be a regular polyhedron ? If yes, what is the condition for this polyhedron to be regular ?

Let
be a finite set of points in three-dimensional space. Let
be the sets consisting of the orthogonal projections of the points of
onto the

Note Note: The orthogonal projection of a point onto a plane is the foot of the perpendicular from that point to the plane.
