      Question

      Find the total surface area of a cuboid that is formed by

      merging two identical cubes, where the surface area of each cube is given as 384 cm².
      A 330 cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 126 cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 432 cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 768 cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Let the length of each edge of the cube = ‘a’ cm

      So, 6 × a² = 384

      So, a² = 64

      Or, a = 8

      So, length of the cuboid = 2 × a = 2 × 8 = 16 cm

      Width of the cuboid = a = 8 cm

      And, height of the cuboid = a = 8 cm

      Desired area = 2 × (8 × 8 + 8 × 16 + 8 × 16) = 2 × 384 = 768 cm²
