Question:

The length, breadth and height of a cuboid are 5 cm, 2 cm and 4 cm respectively. What is the total surface area of the cuboid?

Options:

84 cm2

152 cm2

38 cm2

76 cm2

Correct Answer:

76 cm2

Explanation:

We know that,

Total surface area of the cuboid = 2(lb + bh + hl)

We have,

L = 5 cm

b = 2 cm

h = 4 cm.

Total surface area of the cuboid = 2(5 × 2 + 2 × 4 + 4 × 5) = 2 (10 + 8 + 20) = 2 × 38 = 76 cm2
