A cubical box has each edge 10 cm and another cuboidal box is 12.5 cm long, 10 cmwide and 8 cm high.(i) Which box has the greater lateral surface area and by how much?(ii) Which box has the smaller total surface area and by how much?

Answer» 1) TSA of cube=`4a^2=4*10^2=400cm^2`
TSA of Cuboid=`2(l+b)h=2(12+10)8=352cm^2`
difference=400-352=48`cm^2`
2)TSA of cube=`6a^2=6(10)^2=600m^2`
TSA of cuboid=`2(lb+bh+hl)=352+2(120)=592m^2`
difference=600-592=8`cm^2`.
