The total surface area of a cuboid is 4200 cm. If the length and breadth of the cuboid are 15 cm and 16 cm, then find the height of the cuboid.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. 60.

T.S.A of cuboid = 2(lb + bh + hl)

here l = length, b = breadth, and h = height

⇒ 4200 = 2(15 × 16 + 16 × h + h × 15)

⇒ 4200 = 2(240 + 16h + 15h)

⇒ 4200 = 480 + 32h + 30h

⇒ 3720 = 62h

⇒ h = 60
