Surface Area of a Cube = 6 a 2
(a is the length of the side of each edge of the cube)
In words, the surface area of a cube is the area of the six squares that cover it. The area of one of them is a*a, or a 2 . Since these are all the same, you can multiply one of them by six, so the surface area of a cube is 6 times one of the sides squared.

How do you find lateral surface area of cube?
If a is the side,lateral surface area of cube=4a2
How do you find the surface area of a simple object?
if you are finding the surface area of a cube, first find the area of one side by multiplying length X width and then multiply the area of one side of the cube by 6. that would be the surface area of the cube
How do you figure the surface area of a cube?
You find the surface area of a cube by using the formula 6e2. In this case, e=edge.
What is the surface area of a cube with edges x cm long?
To find the surface area of a cube, add the area of its 6 sides. The area of one side is x^2. The cube has 6 faces therefore the surface area equals 6x^2
How do you find the surface area of a cube using only its volume?
Take the cube root of the volume to get the length of an edge. Square this number to get the area of a side, Multiply this by 6 to get the total surface area of the cube.
