**Case Study :** On a Sunday your parents took you to a fair. You could see lot of toys displayed and you wanted them to buy a Rubik's cube and a strawberry ice-cream for you.
*(Figure : a Rubik's cube and a hemispherical ice-cream on a cone.)*
Based on the information given above, answer the following questions :
**(i)** Find the length of the diagonal of Rubik's cube if each edge measures 6 cm. *(1 mark)*
**(ii)** Find the volume of Rubik's cube if the length of the edge is 7 cm. *(1 mark)*
**(iii) (a)** What is the curved surface area of hemisphere (ice-cream) if the base radius is 7 cm ? *(2 marks)*
**OR**
**(iii) (b)** If two cubes of edges 4 cm are joined end-to-end, then find the surface area of the resulting cuboid. *(2 marks)*
✅ Answer & Solution
### (i) Diagonal of the cube (edge 6 cm)
**Step 1 — Recall the formula for the body diagonal of a cube.**
$$d = a\sqrt3$$
### (iii) (b) Surface area of the cuboid from two 4 cm cubes
**Step 8 — Find the dimensions of the resulting cuboid.**
Joining two cubes of edge 4 cm end-to-end :
$$l = 4 + 4 = 8 \text{ cm}, \qquad b = 4 \text{ cm}, \qquad h = 4 \text{ cm}$$
