A cubical box has each edge 10 cm and another cuboidal box is 12.5 cm long, 10 cm wide and 8 cm high.
(i) Which box has the greater lateral surface area and by how much ?
(ii) Which box has the smaller total surface area and by how much ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
(i) The lateral surface area of cubical box is greater by 40 `cm^(2)` (400-360).
(ii) The total surface area of cubical box is smaller by 10 `cm^(2)` (610-600).
