Cube Calculator

Calculate the volume, surface area, and other dimensions of a cube using its side length.

Cube Volume and Surface Area Calculator

Calculate the volume and surface area of a cube with our easy-to-use calculator. Learn about cube formulas, real-world applications, and explore interactive examples.

A cube is a three-dimensional solid object bounded by six equal square faces, with three meeting at each vertex. Our cube calculator helps you determine both the volume and surface area of a cube using just its edge length. Perfect for mathematics, engineering, or real-world applications.

Formula

Volume = a³
Surface Area = 6a²

Where:

  • a:length of any edge of the cube (in your chosen unit of length)

How to Calculate Cube Volume

To calculate the volume of a cube, simply cube the length of any edge...

Real-World Applications

Cubes are common in architecture, packaging, and storage solutions...

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the relationship between edge length and volume?

When you double the edge length of a cube, the volume increases by a factor of 8 (2³), while the surface area increases by a factor of 4 (2²).

Why is a cube considered a regular solid?

A cube is a regular solid because all its faces are identical squares and all its edges are equal in length.
