Ans. let length of cuboid = l
breadth of cuboid = b
height of cuboid = h
According to question
l + b + h = 19 ............ (1)
We Know
Length of Diagonal of Cuboid = \({ \sqrt{ l^2+ b^2 + h^2}}\)
=> \({ \sqrt{ l^2+ b^2 + h^2}} = 11\)
Squaring both sides, we get
=> \({ l^2+ b^2 + h^2} = 121\) .......(2)
Also
=> \(({ l+ b + h})^2 = {l^2 + b^2 +h^2 + 2lb + 2lh +2bh }\)
=> \( { 2(lb + lh +bh) } = {({ l+ b + h})^2 - {(l^2 + b^2 +h^2)}}\)
put values from (1) and (2),
=> \( { 2(lb + lh +bh) } = 361 - 121 = 240\) ....... (3)
Surface Area of Cuboid = \( { 2(lb + lh +bh) } \)
=> So Surface Area of Cuboid = 240 cm2

Let the length,breadth and height of the cuboid be l,b and h respectively.
Given l+b+h= 19cm
Squaring both sides
(l+b+h)2= 361
l2+b2+h2+2(lb+bh+hl)= 361 -(1)
Also, Length of the diagonal = \(d = { \sqrt{l^2+b^2+h^2}}\)= 11 cm
Squaring both sides , d2= l2+b2+h2
l2+b2+h2= 121
Putting it in eqn (1)
121 + 2(lb+bh+hl)= 361
2(lb+bh+hl)= 361-121
Surface area of cuboid = 240 cm2
