Solution

For this case we know the total surface area given by:

384 cm^2

And we have the following: 108+48 +108+48 = 312 cm^2

the ramianing area is:

384 -312= 72 cm^2

And we can do the following:

2*9*? = 72

Solving for ? we got:

? = 72/18 = 4 cm

the final answer is:

The area of each missing face is: 36 cm^2

The lenght of each missing edge is: 4 cm
