    This document discusses the properties and surface areas of cubes. It defines a cube as a 3D shape with six square faces of equal length and width. The total surface area of a cube is six times the area of one face, since all faces are identical squares. The curved or lateral surface area excludes the top and bottom faces, and is four times the area of one face.

    Surface area of cube


    CUBE
     Cube is
    A cube is a 3 dimensional figure,
    having 6 faces,12 edges and 8
    vertices.
    Properties of cube

    All the six faces are square.


    All the six faces are identical.
    Length=Breath=Height
    CUBE

    Some of the examples of cube are:


    Formation of a cube

     Take some square figures of the


    same shape and size from the
    cardboard sheet and stack them up
    in a vertical shape.
    Areas of cube

    1.Total surface area of the cube


     Itis sum of areas of all the
    six faces of the cube.
     Sinceall the six faces are
    square and identical.
     Sototal surface area of
    cube=6×area of each faces.
    =6×a²
    Areas of cube

    2.Curved/lateral surface area of cube


     It is the area of all the faces of the
    cube excluding top and bottom.
     So the curved surface area of cube
     =4×area of each faces
     =4×a²
