the total surface area of a cuboid is 214 sq.cm . its length is 7 cm and breadth is 6 cm . Find its volume.
Answers
Given:
- The Total Surface Area(TSA) of a cuboid is 214 cm sq.
- The length (l) of the cuboid is 7 cm
- The breadth (b) of the cuboid is 6 cm
To find:
The volume of the cuboid
The formula to find the volume of the cuboid is
= lbh unit cube.
[Here, 'l' is the 'length', 'b' is the 'breadth', and 'h' is the 'height' of the cuboid]
So,
We have length and breadth, we need height of the cuboid.
We can find the height of the cuboid by the TSA formula
The formula to find the Total Surface Area of a cuboid is
= 2(lb+bh+hl) unit sq.
So,
⇒ 2 [ (7*6) + (6*h) + (h*7) ] = 214
⇒ 2[ 42 + 6h + 7h ] = 214
⇒ 2 [42 + 13h] = 214
⇒ 42 + 13h = 214 ÷ 2
⇒ 42 + 13h = 107
⇒ 13h = 107 - 42
⇒ 13h = 65
⇒ h = 5
∴The height of the cuboid is 5 cm
Now
- The volume of the cuboid is
= lbh
= 7*6*5
= 210 cm ³
Hence,
The volume of the cuboid is 210 cm cube.

- Lateral/Curved Surface Area of cuboid = 2h( l+b ) unit sq.
Answer:
210 cm cube
Step-by-step explanation:
Total surface area = 214 cm sq. (given)
Length = 7 cm and breadth = 6 cm (given)
So,
2(lb+bh+hl) = 214
→ 2(7×6 + 6×h + h×7) = 214
→ 2( 42 + 6h + 7h ) = 214
→ 2 (42 + 13h) = 214
→ 42 + 13h = 214 ÷ 2
→ 42 + 13h = 107
→ 13h = 107 - 42
→ 13h = 65
→ h = 5
And
Volume of the cuboid = lbh
= 7×6×5 = 210 cm cube
