How is a square and a cube alike?

Answer 1

Squares have all 4 sides of equal lenght and a cube is made up of squares. Think of a cube as 6 squares, top, bottom, and 4 sides. Some of those share a common edge, but all the edges of a cube (which are like sides of a square) are of equal length.

Now given the length of a side of a square, let us call it L, the area is L2 and given the length of an edge of a cute, the volume is L3
