Exploring Surface Area and Volume of Cubes and Cuboids

The video begins with a game to identify cuboids, followed by an explanation of dimensions using dots, lines, and rectangles. It then delves into the properties of cuboids, including surface area, volume, and diagonal length, with practical examples. The video transitions to cubes, explaining their unique properties and formulas. It concludes with examples and practice questions to reinforce learning.

What is a cuboid?

• A circular object

• A three-dimensional object with length, breadth, and height

• A shape with only length and breadth

• A two-dimensional shape
