To find the area of a cuboid, we need to determine the sum of the areas of all its faces.
The formula for the surface area of
a cuboid is:
Surface Area = 2(lw + lh + wh)
Where l, w, and h are the length, width, and height of the cuboid.
Plugging the given measurements into the formula, we get:
Surface Area = 2(18 × 12 + 18 × 10 + 12 × 10)
Surface Area = 2(216 + 180 + 120)
Surface Area = 2(516)
Surface Area = 1032 cm²
Therefore, the area of the given cuboid is 1032 cm².
