The surface area of a cuboid with edges l, b and h is:
A2(lb + bh + hl)
Blb + bh + hl
C4(lb + bh + hl)
D3(lb + bh + hl)
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. 2(lb + bh + hl)
1. Opposite faces of a cuboid are equal in area.
2. So each of the three distinct face areas appears twice.
3. The total is 2 times lb plus bh plus hl.
