Answer 1

Answer:

The area of the lateral surface of the cube is 12.96 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The lateral surface area

4 × (1.8 cm)²

An objects lateral surface are the surfaces of the object that exclude the top and bottom surfaces

In a cube, the lateral surface are the vertically oriented (with respect to the base and the top which are then oriented horizontally) surfaces of the cube

Therefore, the lateral surface area of the cube consist of four vertically oriented equal sized faces, each with side 1.8 cm

The area of the lateral surface of the cube = The area of the four vertically oriented faces of the cube

∴ The area of the lateral surface of the cube = 4 × 1.8 cm × 1.8 cm = 12.96 cm.²
