If a cube with a 5 inch side length is sliced in half what is the surface area of the two pieces?
surface area of each piece would be 100 sq.inch
Total surface area of two identical cubes?
(surface area of cube 1 or 2 (either)) times 2 = (total surface area of two identical cubes)
What is surface area of 2 cubes?
Surface area of two cubes = 6 times [ (length of first cube's edge)2 + (length of second cube's edge)2 ]
Does a sugar cube have a greater surface area than sugar crystals?
depends on the two objects!
If the surface area of a cube is 24 what is the length of each edge?
Each edge measures two units.

Total surface area of two identical cubes?
(surface area of cube 1 or 2 (either)) times 2 = (total surface area of two identical cubes)
How do you figure out the area of a cube?
Multiply two adjacent sides- that will give you the area of one face. Then multiply by six- a cube has 6 faces. That will give you the surface area of the cube.
What is surface area of 2 cubes?
Surface area of two cubes = 6 times [ (length of first cube's edge)2 + (length of second cube's edge)2 ]
How do you out the area of a figure?
Multiply two adjacent sides- that will give you the area of one face. Then multiply by six- a cube has 6 faces. That will give you the surface area of the cube.
What is the volume if a cube if the surface area is forty-two sq centimeter?
V = 18.52 cm3
Does a sugar cube have a greater surface area than sugar crystals?
depends on the two objects!
What is the volume of a cube with a surface area of 42cm squared?
This should be solved in two steps. 1) Use the formula for the area of a cube, and solve for the length of a side of the cube. 2) Using this length, it is easy to find out the volume, with the formula for the volume of a cube.
Why when you multiply the dimensions of a cube by two is the volume much larger but the surface area remains the same?
Because
If the surface area of a cube is 24 what is the length of each edge?
Each edge measures two units.
If you cut a cube in half will the combined surface area of the two halves be more or less?
Yes it will be less because if you take a net of a cube and find the surface area it would be for example 30cm2 and if it was cut in half it would be 15cm squared so its smallerCORRECT ANSWER:Neither. It will be more in area because although you have made two halves of a cube, you have added a new exposed side on each of the halves, thus making 2 sides the same size as the cube. It will lessen by half the area on 4 of the sides which are bisected. So you get the same area that you started with. The above formula is close, but did not account for the other half.

How much will the surface area increase if the cube is cut in half?
First, picture a cube one inch on a side. Each side is one square inch; Six square inches total of SURFACE AREA . ------------------- SCENARIO #1 ------------------- A slice (either vertical or horizontal) will add TWO (2) more sides, each being an additional square inch, for a sum total of eight (8) square inches. An increase of 2 sq. in. over the original six (6) sq. in. is an increase of 33 percent. So, for vertical or horizontal halving, the formula is, as follows: [ORIGINAL SURFACE AREA times 1.33] ------------------- SCENARIO #2 ------------------- But if you halve the cube on a diagonal, the resultant new surfaces will be oblong, measuring 1" by 1.414" (the Square Root of two) adding almost another square inch of surface area. 2 x ( 1 x 1.414) = 2.828 square inches The total SURFACE AREA is now 8.828 (when halved on the DIAGONAL). This is an INCREASE of 47.13333 percent. Resultant formula: [ORIGINAL SURFACE AREA times 1.4713] ------------------- THEREFORE ------------------- FINALLY, the answer to your question is somewhere between these two extremes, because your cut will be neither a perfect vertical cut, nor a perfect diagonal cut.
