Find the surface area of the given cubic/cuboidal object (brick,
box packet etc.).
Object: Our objective is to find the TSA(Total Surface Area) of
the given cubic/cuboidal object.
Materials Required: Given object, scale, writing tools
Diagram:

Theory: Total Surface Area is the whole area of the object’s

surface. We will find the TSA of given object by using the
formula.
Formula: TSA of cube of side a = 6a2
TSA of cuboid of length l, breadth b and height
h = 2(lb+bh+hl)
Calculation: Let say that the object is a cube of side 20cm, then
it’s TSA will be:
= 6a2
= 6(20)2
= 6(400)

3
= 2400 cm²
Or we have a cuboidal object of length 15cm, breadth 13cm and
height 20 cm then it’s TSA will be
= 2(lb+bh+hl)
= 2( 15 × 13 +13 ×20 + 20×15 )
= 2( 195 + 260 + 300 )
= 2(755)
= 1510 cm²
Result: Therefore TSA of cube = 2400 cm²
TSA of cuboid = 1510 cm²
Observation: Through this activity, we have observed that the
Total Surface Area of a cuboid is calculated by adding area of
each surface of Cuboid and similarly with cube.
Conclusion: We can conclude from above activity that we will
be able to calculate the TSA of given object if it is the form of a
cube or a cuboid.
Precautions: 1) Calculation should be done properly.
2) No errors should be in Calculation.
3) Always write units.
4) Measure the object carefully and properly.

above precautions should be taken and this is also the easiest way
to find TSA of given object.

and height of cuboid respectively.
Calculation: Let us say that side of a cube is 12 cm.
Therefore = a³

5
 = (12)³
