Oh, dude, calculating the cross-sectional area of a cube is like a walk in the park. You just take the length of one side of the cube and square it. So if the side of the cube is 4 units long, the cross-sectional area would be 16 square units. Easy peasy, right?

To calculate the cross-sectional area of a cube, you need to determine the area of one of its faces. Since all faces of a cube are identical squares, you can find the area of one face by squaring the length of one side. Therefore, the formula to calculate the cross-sectional area of a cube is A = s^2, where A is the area and s is the length of one side of the cube.
Well, isn't that just a happy little question! To find the cross-sectional area of a cube, you simply multiply the length of one side by itself. So if each side of your cube is 4 units long, you would calculate the cross-sectional area by multiplying 4 x 4, which equals 16 square units. Just remember, there are no mistakes, only happy little accidents in math!
You cannot unless you know the angle of the plane which defines the cross section.
A perimeter is normally defined for 2-dimensional shapes and not three dimensional ones. A cube has 12 edges. So, if the perimeter is 48 cm, each edge must be 48/12 = 4 cm. The cross section of a cube depends on the angle of the plane intersecting the cube and, if it is not perpendicular to the cube, can be triangular, parallelogram or hexagonal. Assuming the plane is at right angles to the cube, the cross section is a square with sides of 4 cm. So its area is 16 cm2
That would depend on the shape, be it cube, sphere, etc. In general, the volume of any regular solid is its cross-sectional area multiplied by its length.
Total surface area of a cube: 6 times a side squared
Multiply the area of one of its faces by 6
Total Surface Area = 6L2. Where L = the length of one side of the cube.
