What is the surface area of the rectangular cuboid?

The formula for the surface area of a rectangular cuboid is given as:

SA = 2(lw + lh + hw)

where;

l = length

h = height

w = width

We are given;

Length; l = 3 in.

Width; w = 7 in.

Height; h = 8 in.

Thus, surface area is;

SA = 2((3*7) + (3*8) + (8*7))

SA = 2(21 + 24 + 56)

SA = 2(101)

SA = 202 sq. in
