A three-dimensional shape with six identical square faces and equal edge lengths.
Revise: Surface areas and volumesA cube has six identical square faces. Every edge has the same length, so one measurement is enough to determine both its total surface area and its volume.
Identify what the question asks for before calculating: surface area uses all six outer faces, whereas volume is the space inside the cube.
