Answer:
Total Surface Area
= 24 in^2
Explanation:
A cube has 6 sides (faces). Each side is a square. The square face (all of them) is a 2 by 2 square. The area of each square face is 2 × 2 = 4 square inches. There 6 faces that are 4 square inches each. The total surface area is all of the 6 sides added together.
TSA = 4+4+4+4+4+4
TSA = 24 square inches
The total surface area is 24 in^2.
