The base of an inclined prism is a triangle $ABC$. The perpendicular projection of $B_1$, one of the top vertices, is the midpoint of $BC$. The dihedral angle between the lateral faces through $BC$ and $AB$ is $\alpha$, and the lateral edges of the prism make an angle $\beta$ with the base.

Let $B = (20, 14)$ and $C = (18, 0)$ be two points in the plane. For every line $\ell$ passing through $B$, we color red the foot of the perpendicular from $C$ to $\ell$.

We will say that two pyramids touch each other by faces if they have no common interior points and if the intersection of a face of one of them with a face of the other is either a triangle or a polygon. Is it possible to place $8$ tetrahedra in such a way that every two of them touch each other by faces?
