question
the figure below is a net for a cube.
what is the surface area of the cube, in square meters?
answer
a = m²

Explanation:

Step1: Find the area of one face

The area of one face of a cube is \(s^2\), where \(s = 17.3\) m. So, \(A_{face}=17.3\times17.3 = 299.29\) \(m^{2}\)

Step2: Calculate the surface area of the cube

A cube has 6 faces. The surface area formula is \(A = 6s^{2}\). Substitute \(s = 17.3\) into the formula: \(A=6\times299.29=1795.74\) \(m^{2}\)

Answer:

\(1795.74\)
