Question

Find the surface area of the cube

Answer 1

We know that:

`\space\ Surface \space\ area \space\ of \space\ cube=\s Area \space\ of \space\ it's \space\ faces`

This means that:

`\space\ Surface \space\ area = [(2)(2)] + [(2)(2)] + [(2)(2)] + [(2)(2)] + [(2)(2)] + [(2)(2)]`

Simplify the expression to find the surface area.

Simplifying the expression:

`[(2)(2)] + [(2)(2)] + [(2)(2)] + [(2)(2)] + [(2)(2)] + [(2)(2)] \\\\\ [4] + [4] + [4] + [4] + [4] + [4]\\\\ 4[6] \\\\ 24 \space\ cm^(2)`

Hence, the surface area is 24 cm².

Answer 2

24 cm²

easy way to find surface area of a cube.

use the formula: 6a²

`\hookrightarrow 6(2)^2`

`\hookrightarrow 6(4)`

`\hookrightarrow24`
