A tetrahedron has one vertex at the origin OO; two other vertices are A=(2,0,0)A=(2,0,0) and B=(0,2,0)B=(0,2,0); the fourth vertex CC lies on the ray from the origin in the direction (1,1,1)(1,1,1), so C=m(1,1,1)C = m(1,1,1) for some positive real number mm. Find the positive value of mm for which tetrahedron OABCOABC has volume 44.
