Surface Area of a Cube

Front

What is the formula for calculating the surface area of a cube?

Back

The surface area (SA) of a cube is calculated using the formula: SA = 6 * (side length)^2.

Front

If the side length of a cube is 4 cm, what is its surface area?

Back

SA = 6 * (4 cm)^2 = 96 cm².

Front

What units are used to measure surface area?

Back

Surface area is measured in square units, such as cm², in², m².

Front

How many faces does a cube have?

Back

A cube has 6 faces.

Front

What is the relationship between the side length and the surface area of a cube?

Back

The surface area increases with the square of the side length.

Front

If a cube has a surface area of 150 cm², what is the length of one side?

Back

Side length = √(SA/6) = √(150 cm²/6) = 5 cm.

Front

What is the surface area of a cube with a side length of 10 inches?

Back

SA = 6 * (10 in)^2 = 600 in².

Front

If the side length of a cube is doubled, how does the surface area change?

Back

If the side length is doubled, the surface area increases by a factor of 4.

Front

What is the surface area of a cube with a side length of 3 m?

Back

SA = 6 * (3 m)^2 = 54 m².

Front

What is the surface area of a cube with a side length of 5 cm?

Back

SA = 6 * (5 cm)^2 = 150 cm².
