Q : 5 A cubical box has each edge and another cuboidal box is long, wide and high.
(ii) Which box has the smaller total surface area and by how much?
Given,
Edge of the cubical box =
Dimensions of the cuboid =
(ii) The total surface area of the cubical box =
The total surface area of the cuboidal box =
Clearly, the total surface area of a cuboidal box is greater than the cubical box.
Difference between them =
