first find the length of one side. because the sides are all equal, $v=(side) \times (side) \times (side)$ so basically $v=(side)^{3}$ so $1331=(side)^{3}$ to get one side, find the cube root $side=\sqrt[3]{1331} = 11$ so surface area will be $(11 \times 11)$ for one face. but there are 6 faces so multiply your answer by 6

Can you help me with this? Find the area and perimeter of the polygon with vertices A( 3, 0), B(3, 4), C(5, 1), and D(-1,-3 ). a. area = 26 units ; perimeter = units b. area = 13 units ; perimeter = units c. area = 13 units ; perimeter = units d. area = 26 units ; perimeter = units
