Question: What is the surface area of the cube?
Answer:
[tex]Area = 216\ in^2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]L = 6[/tex] --- length
Required
Determine the surface area
The surface area of a cube is calculated as follows:
[tex]Area = 6L^2[/tex]
Substitute 6 for L
[tex]Area = 6 * 6^2[/tex]
[tex]Area = 6 * 36[/tex]
[tex]Area = 216[/tex]
Hence, the surface area of the cube is [tex]216in^2[/tex]
