1985 AIME Problem 15

Three 12 cm \times 12 cm squares are each cut into two pieces A and B, as shown in the first figure below, by joining the midpoints of two adjacent sides. These six pieces are then attached to a regular hexagon, as shown in the second figure, so as to fold into a polyhedron. What is the volume (in \mathrm{cm}^3) of this polyhedron?
