Solid 1: Square Prism with each side of the base equal to 8 in. and a height of 8 in. I need to be able to draw this
That's a cube.
okay so each side is 8 inches
or do they all have to equal 8 when adding
Well, you said each, so that means each side is 8 in.
how do you find the volume, surface area, of the cube
Volume of a box is always length, times width, times height. Since all the dimensions are the same, it's just the side length, cubed. The surface area of each face, similarly is just the side length, squared. And since there are six faces, the surface area is six times the area of a single face.
If the length of the side is \(s\), the volume and surface area are given as follows. You must memorize these formulas, or at least remember how to generate them.\[\text{Volume} = s^3\]\[\text{Surface Area} = 6s^{2}\]
could you show me in a formula
thanks
what is 6s squared
