Question

Find the total surface area of this cuboid

the cuboid has a length of 4cm and the width of 2cm and the height of 5cm

Answer 1

SA = 76 cm²

Explanation:

Surface Area (SA) of a cuboid: 2(lw) + 2(wh) + 2(hl)

SA = 2(lw) + 2(wh) + 2(hl)

• l = 4 cm
• w = 2 cm
• h = 5 cm

Substitute the values above and multiply:

SA = 2(lw) + 2(wh) + 2(hl)

SA = 2(4)(2) + 2(2)(5) + 2(5)(4)

SA = 2(8) + 2(10) + 2(20)

SA = 16 + 20 + 40

SA = 76 cm²

Final answer: 76 cm²

Hope this helps!
