Question

A cube has lateral surface area of 576 m^2 find the length of the sides of cube

Answer 1

given,

lateral surface area of cube=576m²

we know,

4a²=lateral surface area of cube (where a is the length of each side of the cube)

therefore,

4a²= 576

a²= 576/4

a²= 144

or,

a = √144

a = 12

Answer: 12m is the length of the sides of cube
