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.
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 to find the surface area of a cube?
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 I calculate the surface-area- to-volume ratio for a square or cube cell that is 3 mm each side?
The answer to your question is below along with a general formula so you can see where the answer comes from.The formula for the volume of a cube with side length L is L3The formula for the surface area comes from finding the area of one side of the cube and multiplying that by 6 since there are 6 sides. The area of one side is L2 sothe surface area is 6L2 .Now if we want ratio of surface area to volume for any cube, it would be 6L2 /L3This simplifies to 6/LSo in the case of a cube with side length 3 mm it is 6/3 or 2.Method 2 would be to find the surface area and volume for your cube only and then divide.The volume is 33 and the surface area is 6(32 ) so the ratio of surface area to volume is6(32 )/33 =2
