Lateral area = surface area of 4 sides of the cube = 4s2 = 4 x 52 = 100
The cube's surface area consists of six squares; you can simply add the area of each of the squares. Note that each of the squares has the same size.
about 5.25. 5.25 cubed is 144.703125.
The lateral area of a prism is the sum of the areas of all the lateral faces. A lateral face is not a base. The surface area is the total area of all faces.Lateral Area: The lateral area of a right prism with base perimeter P and height h is L=Ph.Surface Area: The surface area of a right prism with lateral area L and base area is B is S = L + 2B, or S = Ph + 2B.
the formulas for lateral area dont include the figures bases. surface area does.
