A cube is a three-dimensional geometric object with 6 square faces, 12 equal edges and 8 orthogonal vertices creating perfect 90 degree corners. The size of a cube is usually defined by the length of one side, so that the volume is equal to the side length to the third power, and the surface area equal to six times the side length to the third power, or:
- SA = 6m²
- V = m²
For any positive side length m.
