The surface area and diagonal of a cuboid are 288 sq.cm and 12 cm respectively.
\n" ); document.write( " Show that the cuboid is a cube.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "let s = one side of the cube
\n" ); document.write( "therefore the surface area
\n" ); document.write( "6s^2 = 288
\n" ); document.write( "s^2 = 288/6
\n" ); document.write( "s^2 = 48
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "The diagonal of one side
\n" ); document.write( "d = \"sqrt%282s%5E2%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "The diagonal of the cuboid
\n" ); document.write( "\"sqrt%282s%5E2+%2B+s%5E2%29\" = 12
\n" ); document.write( "square both side
\n" ); document.write( "\"2s%5E2+%2B+s%5E2\" = 144
\n" ); document.write( "replace s^2 with 48
\n" ); document.write( "\"%282%2848%29%29+%2B+48%29\" = 144
\n" ); document.write( "96 = 144 - 48
\n" ); document.write( "96=96
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
