Most scientific calculators have a single key which looks like "x3" except that the 3 is in superscript. Others have "x-followed by a superscript picture of a square". In this case you would enter the number you want cubed, then this function key and then 3.
On non-scientific calculators you can always do "number * number * number = ".

If a cube has sides of length x cm then area = 6x2 cm2 and volume = x3 cm3
lateral area of a cube is consisting of 4 times the area of each face, so first calculate the area of a face (side2) then multiply by 4
To calculate the surface area of a cube, you need to find the area of all six faces and then sum them up. Since all faces of a cube are identical squares, you can use the formula for the area of a square, which is side length squared. So, if the side length of the cube is "s," the surface area would be 6s^2.
There are six equal sides. Each side is a square. That should tell you something about how to calculate it.
assuming you mean the cube has 6cm sides....each face of the cube has an area of 6cm x 6cm = 36cm2A cube has 6 faces so the total surface area is 6 x 36 = 216cm2
