Question

a cube is a three-dimensional solid with a square faces find the total surface area of a cube whose edges are each five feet in length

Answer 1

All we have to do is solve for one of the square faces.
Area = (side)^2

=5^2
25 ft^2
There are 6 sides on a cube, so we multiply by 6

25*6 = 150 ft^2

Answer 2

a cube has 6 square faces
each face is a square, the area of each is side²

so the surface area of a cube is 6s² where is the length of each side or edge

given that each edge is 5ft

SA=6(5)²
SA=6(25)
SA=150 ft²

the surface area is 150 ft²
