If each edge of a cube is increased by 10%, then the percentage increase in its surface area is: |
21% 19% 22% 20% |
21% |
Concept= If the edge of a cube is increased from x to y then the percentage increase in its area will be y2 - x2 So , +10% = \(\frac{11}{10}\) Here x = 10 and y = 11 So, percentage increase in area = 112 - 102 = 21% |
