5. Find the lateral surface area of the net of
the cube.
1.8 cm

Given:
Given that the side length of the cube is 1.8 cm
We need to determine the lateral surface area of the cube.
Lateral surface area of the cube:
The lateral surface area of the cube can be determined using the formula,
[tex]LSA=4a^2[/tex]
where a is the side length.
Substituting a = 1.8 in the above formula, we get;
[tex]LSA=4(1.8)^2[/tex]
Squaring the term, we get;
[tex]LSA=4(3.24)[/tex]
Multiplying, we get;
[tex]LSA=12.96[/tex]
Thus, the lateral surface area of the cube is 12.96 cm²
