Step by step guide to finding Volume and Surface Area of Cubes

  • A cube is a three-dimensional solid object bounded by six square sides.
  • Volume is the measure of the amount of space inside of a solid figure, like a cube, ball, cylinder or pyramid.
  • Volume of a cube \(=\) (one side)\(^3\)
  • surface area of cube \(=6×\) (one side)\(^2\)

Cubes – Example 1:

Find the volume and surface area of this cube.

Solution:

Use volume formula: volume \(=\) (one side)\(^3\)
Then: volume \(=\) (one side)\(^3=(4)^3=64\) \(cm^3\)
Use surface area formula: surface area of cube: \(=6\) (one side)\(^2\)
Then: surface area of cube \(=6\) (one side)\(^2=6(4)^2=6(16)=96\) \(cm^2\)

Cubes – Example 2:

Find the volume and surface area of this cube.

Solution:

Use volume formula: volume \(=\) (one side)\(^3\)
Then: volume \(=\) (one side)\(^3=(2)^3=8\) \(cm^3\)
Use surface area formula: surface area of cube: \(=6\) (one side)\(^2\)
Then: surface area of cube \(=6\) (one side)\(^2=6(2)^2=6(4)=24\) \(cm^2\)
