Total surface area of cube: Surface Area of a cube

Surface Area of a cube is the total area of the outside surfaces of the cube and is given by A= 6a2, where a is the edge. A cube has 6 identical square faces and hence it is also called as a hexahedron. Each face of a cube has 4 edges and totally there are 12 edges. It is measured in terms of square unit. Our Area of a Cube Calculator page will help you to find the surface area of a range of different cubes. Learn how to calculate the total surface area (TSA) and lateral surface area (LSA) of a cube using simple formulas. Find the TSA of a cube as 6a2 and the LSA of a cube as 4a2, where a is the side length of the cube. The surface area of a cube is the measure of the total area covered by all six faces of the cube. Each face of a cube is square with equal side lengths.
