A square has width and height. Width is the horizontal line, height is the vertical line. This is a two-dimensional object and has an area.A cube is a square with one more dimension, length, which makes it a three dimensional object. As a three-dimensional object, it no longer has an area, but now has volume.To find the area of a cube (a three-dimensional object), one must multiply three dimensions (length, width, and height) to obtain the volume of the cube.
