Question

If the volume of a cube is 1728 cubic cm , find the length of its edge ?

hintHint:

  • 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 = a cubed, 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 c m cubed …......................................... (Equation i)
    Now, we know that-
    Volume of a cube = a cubed
    ∴ Volume of the given cube = a cubed
    ∴ 1,728 = a cubed .......................................................... (From Equation i)
    ∴ 12 = a ........................................................... (Taking cube roots both the sides)
    ∴ The given cube has edges of 12 cm each.
