    What are the dimensions (length, breadth and height respectively) of a cuboid with volume 720 cubic cm, surface area 484 square cm and the area of the base 72 square cm?

    A) 9, 8 and 10 cm

    B) 12, 6 and 10 cm

    C) 18, 4 and 10 cm

    D) 30, 2 and 12 cm

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Volume of the cuboid \[=720\text{ }c{{m}^{3}}\] Height of the cuboid \[=\frac{\text{Volume}\,\,\text{of}\,\,\text{the}\,\,\text{cuboid}}{\text{Base}\,\,\text{area}\,\,\text{of}\,\,\text{the}\,\,\text{cuboid}}\] \[=\,\frac{720}{72}=10cm\] Surface area of the cuboid \[=2\text{ }(Ib+bh+hI)\] \[=2(9\times ~8+8\times ~10+10\times ~9)\] \[=2\text{ }(72+80+90)\] \[=2\times ~242=484\text{ }c{{m}^{2}}\] \[\therefore \] It is obvious that length, breadth and height of the cuboid is 9cm, 8cm and 10 cm
