How can we find the surface area of a cube of length x?
Surface area of a cube

All six faces of a cube have the same area.
The area of each face is x × x = x2
Therefore,
Surface area of a cube = 6x2

It can be helpful to use the net of a 3-D shape to calculate its surface area.
Using nets to find surface area
Here is the net of a 3 cm by 5 cm by 6 cm cubiod.
Write down the area of each face.
15 cm2 15 cm2
18 cm2
30 cm2 30 cm2
18 cm2
Then add the areas together to find the surface area.
Surface Area = 126 cm2

The following cuboid is made out of interlocking cubes.
Making cuboids
How many cubes does it contain?
![Page 13: Surface Area and Volume Cubes and Cuboids. To find the surface area of a shape, we calculate the total area of all of the faces. A cuboid has 6 faces.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/5697bfd01a28abf838caac28/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
We can work this out by dividing the cuboid into layers.
Making cuboids
The number of cubes in each layer can be found by multiplying the number of cubes along the length by the number of cubes along the width.
3 × 4 = 12 cubes in each layer
There are three layers altogether so the total number of cubes in the cuboid = 3 × 12 = 36 cubes
![Page 14: Surface Area and Volume Cubes and Cuboids. To find the surface area of a shape, we calculate the total area of all of the faces. A cuboid has 6 faces.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/5697bfd01a28abf838caac28/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The amount of space that a three-dimensional object takes up is called its volume.
Making cuboids
For example, we can use mm3, cm3, m3 or km3.
The 3 tells us that there are three dimensions, length, width and height.
Volume is measured in cubic units.
Liquid volume or capacity is measured in ml, l, pints or gallons.
![Page 15: Surface Area and Volume Cubes and Cuboids. To find the surface area of a shape, we calculate the total area of all of the faces. A cuboid has 6 faces.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/5697bfd01a28abf838caac28/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Volume of a cuboid
We can find the volume of a cuboid by multiplying the area of the base by the height.
Volume of a cuboid
= length × width × height
= lwh
height, h
length, lwidth, w
The area of the base
= length × width
So,

Volume and displacement
![Page 18: Surface Area and Volume Cubes and Cuboids. To find the surface area of a shape, we calculate the total area of all of the faces. A cuboid has 6 faces.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/5697bfd01a28abf838caac28/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Volume and displacement
By dropping cubes and cuboids into a measuring cylinder half filled with water we can see the connection between the volume of the shape and the volume of the water displaced.
1 ml of water has a volume of 1 cm3
For example, if an object is dropped into a measuring cylinder and displaces 5 ml of water then the volume of the object is 5 cm3.
What is the volume of 1 litre of water?
1 litre of water has a volume of 1000 cm3.

3 cmWe can think of the shape as two cuboids joined together.
Volume of the green cuboid
= 6 × 3 × 3 = 54 cm3
Volume of the blue cuboid
= 3 × 2 × 2 = 12 cm3
Total volume

Remember, a prism is a 3-D shape with the same cross-section throughout its length.
Volume of a prism
We can think of this prism as lots of L-shaped surfaces running along the length of the shape.
Volume of a prism
= area of cross-section × length
If the cross-section has an area of 22 cm2 and the length is 3 cm,
Volume of L-shaped prism = 22 × 3 = 66 cm3
3 cm
