Full solution

Q. What is the surface area of this cuboid with dimensions 6 cm,8 cm 6 \mathrm{~cm}, 8 \mathrm{~cm} and 3 cm 3 \mathrm{~cm} ?
  1. Calculate Area of Faces: Calculate the area of each face of the cuboid.\newline- Area of face 11 (6cm×8cm6\,\text{cm} \times 8\,\text{cm}): 6×8=48cm26 \times 8 = 48\,\text{cm}^2\newline- Area of face 22 (6cm×3cm6\,\text{cm} \times 3\,\text{cm}): 6×3=18cm26 \times 3 = 18\,\text{cm}^2\newline- Area of face 33 (8cm×3cm8\,\text{cm} \times 3\,\text{cm}): 8×3=24cm28 \times 3 = 24\,\text{cm}^2
  2. Double Area of Faces: Each face has an opposite face of the same area, so double the area of each face.\newline- Total area for pairs of faces: (48×2)+(18×2)+(24×2)=96+36+48(48 \times 2) + (18 \times 2) + (24 \times 2) = 96 + 36 + 48
  3. Find Total Surface Area: Add the areas of all face pairs to find the total surface area.\newline- Total surface area =96+36+48=180cm2= 96 + 36 + 48 = 180 \, \text{cm}^2
