Given:

Length of a cube is 2 cm

To Find:

Surface area of the cube

Solution:

A cube consists of 6 faces.

The area of each face = side x side

So, the total surface area of a cube = 6 x

side x side

Let a be the length of the given cube

: Surface area of a cube = 6a square

a = 2 cm (Given)

Surface area of cube = 6 x 22 =(6 x 4) = 24 cm square.

Hence, the surface area of the given

cube is 24cm square.

Hope it helps!
