Find the volume, lateral surface area and the total surface area of a cube each of whose edges measures: (i) 7 m (ii) 5.6 cm (iii) 8 dm 5 cm

Answer»

(i) We have, 

Length of the edge of the cube = a = 7 cm 

We know that, 

Volume of cube = a3 = 73 = 343 m3 

Also, 

Lateral surface area of the cube 

= 4a2 = 4 × 7 × 7 

= 196 m2 

Total surface area of the cube 

= 6a2 = 6 × 7 × 7 

= 294 m2 

(ii) We have, 

Length of the edge of the cube = a = 5.6 cm 

We know that, 

Volume of cube = a3 = (5.6)3 = 175.616 cm3 

Also, 

Lateral surface area of the cube = 4a2 

= 4 × 5.6 × 5.6 

= 125.44 cm2 

Total surface area of the cube = 6a2 

= 6 × 5.6 × 5.6 

= 188.16 cm2 

(iii) We have, 

Length of the edge of the cube = a = 8 dm 5 cm = 85 cm 

We know that, 

Volume of cube = a3 = 853 = 614125 cm3 

Also, 

Lateral surface area of the cube = 4a2 

= 4 × 85 × 85 

= 28900 cm2 

Total surface area of the cube = 6a2 

= 6 × 85 × 85 

= 43350 cm2
