The sides of two cubes are in the ratio 4:5. Find the ratio of their total surface areas.
Method 1:
The two cubes are similar.
Hence, the ratio of their total surface areas
= 4² : 5²
= 16 : 25
Method 2:
Total surface area of a cube = 6 x (length of side)²
Hence, the ratio of their total surface areas
= (6 x 4²) : (6 x 5²)
= 16 : 25
