C of Radius R CM Touches The Larger Circle C

A larger circle with radius 8 cm is inscribed in a square. A smaller circle with radius r cm touches the larger circle and two sides of the square. The problem asks to (a) prove that r^2 - 48r + 64 = 0 and (b) if solid cylinders X and Y are similar with bases as the circles and Y has volume 10 cm^3, find the volume of X to the nearest cm^3.
