Question
If the volume of a cube is 1728 cubic cm , find the length of its edge ?
Hint:
A cube is a solid 3 dimensional figure with six-faces, 8 vertices and 12 edges. Its faces are squares.
Volume is the capacity of a certain object to carry or hold another objects within i.e. the amount of space that the object holds.
Volume of a cube = , where a = length of each edge of the cube.
The correct answer is: The given cube has edges of 12 cm each.
Step-by-step solution: From the given information, we observe that- Volume of the given cube = 1,728 …......................................... (Equation i) Now, we know that- Volume of a cube = ∴ Volume of the given cube = ∴ 1,728 = .......................................................... (From Equation i) ∴ 12 = a ........................................................... (Taking cube roots both the sides) ∴ The given cube has edges of 12 cm each.
