Let T_r denote a regular tetrahedron whose side length is r.
1. Prove that it is impossible to assemble eight T_1 into a T_2.
2. Prove that a tetrahedron can be cut into four optically congruent pieces. Two solids A and B are considered optically congruent if either A or its mirror image can be rotated into B.
3. Prove that a T_2 can be cut into four T_1 and a regular octahedron whose side length is 1.
