Question

Total surface area of a cube is 5400 sq. cm. Find the surface area of all vertical faces of the cube.

Sum

Solution

Let the edge of the cube be l cm.
Total surface area of the cube = 5400 cm2

∴ 6l2 = 5400

⇒ l2 = `5400/6` = 900

⇒ l = `sqrt900` = 30 cm

∴ Surface area of all vertical faces of the cube = 4l2 
= 4 × (30 cm)2 
= 4 × 900 cm2 
= 3600 cm2
Thus, the surface area of all vertical faces of the cube is 3600 cm2.
