What is the surface area of the cube below? 9 9 9
1 answer:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember that the sides of a cube always have the same length.
In this case the length of the sides L is:
.
The cubes have 6 faces. Then the surface area of the cube is equal to the area of its 6 faces.
Since all sides of the cube have the same measure, then the area of each face is:
Then the area of the 6 faces is:

First, by using the distance formula for just one side, we can find the length of all sides (a square has 4 equal sides.) Then, we can apply the area of a square formula, which is a^2.
Distance formula:
√((-2 + 5)^2 + (-8 + 4)^2)
√((3)^2 + (4)^2)
√9 + 16
√25
5
The side lengths of the square are each equal to 5, and by applying the formula for area, we can find the area of the square.
5^2 = 25
<h3>The area is 25.</h3>
