o study island

OpenStudy (chycora):

yes it sucks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I hate study island so much

OpenStudy (chycora):

me 2

OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):

what is the surface area of a cube?

OpenStudy (chycora):

3cm\[3cm ^{2}\]

OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):

hmm how?

OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):

and i was asking for the formula actually not number

OpenStudy (chycora):

o

OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):

well how are you supposed to this if you don't know the formulas?

OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):

the cubes surface area is \[Area=6a^2\] where a is the side of the cube

OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):

in your case the side of the little cubes is c not a just a switch in letter

OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):

the surface area of prism with two square faces is \[Area= 2ab+2a^2\]

OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):

so the total Surface Area is: \[Area=2ab+2a^2+6c^2\]

OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):

just plugging the values and you get the answer

k thanx
