New dorito conatainer... LIKE A BOSS!
haha you guys did a great job on making and advertising this dorito container. Sam- nice job on the picture
Nathan- Excellent math work, Isaac- Cheez-it

Amount
New package would fit 400 chips or 134.375 cubic inches
Height (of triangle) = 4.3 in
Base (of triangle) = 5 in
Height (of prism) = 12.5 in
.5x4.3x5x12.5
Space for Labeling
209 square inches
Triangle = 5x5x5in5x5x5 in (equilateral)
Height (of triangle) = 4.3; 5 squared - 2.5 squared = 18.75 squared or 4.3
Height (of whole prism) = 12.5in12.5 in
LA = 15x12.5 = 187.5 square inches
SA = 187.5+2(.5x5x4.3) = 209 square inches

The bag isn't rigid
Our idea is (inspired by Pringles):
We chose this package because it fits the Doritos shape.
4 Doritos are arranged into a bigger triangle, and then the bigger triangles are stacked up to fit into a rigid, triangular prism.
Boxes are made of cardboad coated with aluminum

There's room for 100 layers
Therefore, fits 400 chips

Making the package wouldn't be difficult because it's really just like the Pringles package for the most part, but putting the Doritos into the package in the intricate way intended would be difficult.
