Volume of the largest rectangular parallelepiped inscribed in an ellipsoid

Maybe you need to understand the following :

Let $P=(x,y,z)$ be a point on the ellipsoid with $x,y,z\gt 0$. Take the eight different points with $$P_i (\pm x,\pm y,\pm z)$$ These points are the vertices of a parallelepiped with the side length $2x , 2y$ and $2z$. Then, the volume parallelepiped is: $$V = 2x\cdot 2y\cdot 2z = 8\cdot x\cdot y\cdot z.$$

Let $$h(x) = \text{maximum value} =8xyz +f(x^2/a^2 +y^2/b^2 +z^2/C^2+1)\tag{1}$$ where f =langragian multiplier.

Then differintiate partialy with respect to x $$8yz+2fx/a^2 =0\tag{2}$$ $$1/a^2 =(-8yz/2fx) $$ similarily $$1/b^2 =(-8zx/2fy)$$ $$ 1/c^2=(-8xy/2fz)$$ $$x^2/a^2 +y^2/b^2+z^2/c^2=1$$ $$\Rightarrow f=-12xyz$$ put f value in eqn(2) $$x=a/\sqrt 3$$ similarily $$y=b/\sqrt 3$$ $$ z=c/\sqrt 3$$ $\Rightarrow$ the largest volume of parallelopiped inscribed in ellipsoid $$=8xyz=8(a/\sqrt 3)(b/\sqrt 3)(c/\sqrt3)$$
