Question

Look at the cube, and the net of this cube. What is the surface area of this cube? Cube with one side labeled 16 feet. Net of the same cube also shown with one side labeled 16 feet.

Answer 1

`486`
`in^2`

Explanation:

we know that

The surface area of the cube is equal to the area of its six square faces

so

`SA=6b^2`

where

b is the length side of the cube

we have

`b=9`
`in`

substitute

`SA=6(9)^2=486 in^2`
