First we need to find the side length of the square we cut in order to maximize the volume of the box. Let the side of the square be x.
Volume = lwh
l = 24 - 2x
w = 9 - 2x
h = x
V = (24 - 2x)(9 - 2x)(x)
V = [(24)(9)(x) - (24)(2x)(x) - (2x)(9)(x) - (2x)(-2x)(x)]
V = 216x - 48x^2 - 18x^2 + 4x^3
V = 216x - 60 x^2 + 4x^3 Take the derivative
V' = 216 - 120x + 12x^2 Make the derivative equal to 0
0 = 216 - 120x + 12x^2
0 = 12(18 - 10x + x^2)
0 = 18 - 10x + x^2
x = [10 ± √[(10^2 - 4(1)(18)]]/2
x = (10 ± √28)/2
x = (10 ± 2√7)/2
x = 5 ± √7 = x = 5 ± 2.6
x = 7.6 or x = 2.4 this are critical values, which we substitute into volume equation
V = 216(2.4) - 60(2.4^2) + 4(2.4^3) = 228 in^3
Thus, the side length of the square we cut is 2.4 in, which also is the height of the box. So,
l = 12 - 2(2.4) = 12 - 4.8 = 7.2
w = 9 - 2(2.4) = 9 - 4.8 = 4.2
Or we can estimate and say that the box will be 7 inches long, 4 inches wide, and 2 inches high.

8 corners
4 corners
They have 16 corners.
In a rectangular prism, there are 8 corners, or vertices. each corner has 3 dimensions, so there would be 3 angles per corner, for a grand total of 24 angles. There are no triangular or circular faces on a rectangular prism. There are 6 rectangular faces.
8 corners and 12 edges.
A rectangular prism (or cuboid) has 8 corners.

In general, rectangular prisms have 8 vertices (corners). A special case of the rectangular prism is the cube, which also has 8 vertices.
