The side of a cube is called a "face." A cube has six faces, each of which is a square. In addition to faces, a cube has edges (the lines where two faces meet) and vertices (the points where edges meet).
A unit cube.

Any plane shape on the side of a polyhedron is called a face.
Total surface area of a cube = 6*area of cube face = 6*cube side*cube side

The cube root is the side of a cube.

Total surface area of a cube = 6*area of cube face = 6*cube side*cube side
The volume of a cube is given by side^3, where side is the length of one side of the cube. So, if the volume of the cube is 64 cm^3, then side^3 = 64 cm^3. Solving for side, we get side = 4 cm. Since the cube has equal sides, the height (or length of any side) of the cube is 4 cm.
Answer in short: cube root of volume. Side length of a cube is the cube root of the volume of the cube or the square root of the area of one of its sides. Examples: A cube of volume 64 has a side length of 4, and a side area of 16. A cube is a symmetrical three dimensional object.
Each side of a cube is square.
Volume of a cube is side x side x side. For example a cube with side as 2 cm will have 8 centimeter cube volume.
Because it was discovered by Jaques Cube when he was using his calculator while walking and he tripped over a root and accidentally hit the square root key, then a number, then ^ carrot key, then hit 1 divided by 3 then enter while he was falling ------------------------------------------------------------------ The non-idiotic answer is that the volume of a cube is a side times a side times a side (a side cubed). Calculating the cube root is the inverse function of cubing, the root being the basic part you started with, a side.
