The surface area of a cube is (2 x length x width) + (2 x width x height) + (2 x length x height):

sa = 2lw + 2wh + 2lh
sa = (2 x 2 x 8) + (2 x 8 x 8) + (2 x 2 x 8)
sa = (32) + (128) + (32)
sa = 192

The volume of a cylinder is πr²h:

v = πr²h
v = π(7² x 8)
v = 392π

The formula for area is πr²:

a = πr²
a = π(4²)
a = 16π

To find the diagonal we need to know the length of one of the square's sides. We know the area and the area of a square is the length of one side squared:

a = s²

so the length of one side of the square is:

s = \( \sqrt{a} \) = \( \sqrt{9} \) = 3

The Pythagorean theorem defines the square of the hypotenuse (diagonal) of a triangle with a right angle as the sum of the squares of the other two sides:

c² = a² + b²
c² = 3² + 3²
c² = 18
c = \( \sqrt{18} \) = \( \sqrt{9 x 2} \) = \( \sqrt{9} \) \( \sqrt{2} \)
c = 3\( \sqrt{2} \)

Parallel lines are lines that share the same slope (steepness) and therefore never intersect. A transversal occurs when a set of parallel lines are crossed by another line. All of the angles formed by a transversal are called interior angles and angles in the same position on different parallel lines equal each other (a° = w°, b° = x°, c° = z°, d° = y°) and are called corresponding angles. Alternate interior angles are equal (a° = z°, b° = y°, c° = w°, d° = x°) and all acute angles (a° = c° = w° = z°) and all obtuse angles (b° = d° = x° = y°) equal each other. Same-side interior angles are supplementary and add up to 180° (e.g. a° + d° = 180°, d° + c° = 180°).
