Challenge 300 : Tercentenary Triangle
Our 300th challenge! Find the ratio of the volumes of three triangle-related shapes to solve this problem.
Thanks to Misha, in Y12 at KCLMS, for this problem!
A triangle ABC has sides of length a, b and c.
A solid composed from two cones is produced by rotating the triangle by 360o about the side of length a. This process is then repeated for sides b and c to produce two more solids, both formed from pairs of cones.

Find the ratio of the volumes of the resulting solids.
