उत्तर

Let x be the side of square base of cuboid and other side be y.
Then the volume of a cuboid with square base,
V = x × x × y
⇒ V = x2y
As the volume of the cuboid is given so volume is taken constantly throughout the question, therefore,

y = `"V"/"x"^2`  ....(i)

In order to show that surface area is minimum when the given cuboid is a cube, we have to show S” > 0 and x = y.
Let S be the surface area of cuboid, then

S = x2 + xy + xy + xy + xy + x2 

S = 2x2 + 4xy     .....(ii)

⇒ S = 2x2 + 4x. `"V"/"x"^2`

⇒ S = 2x2 + `"4V"/"x"`         ....(iii)

⇒ `"dS"/"dx" = "4x" - "4V"/"x"^2`    ....(iv)

For maximum/minimum value of S, we have `"dS"/"dx" = 0`

⇒ `4"x" - "4V"/"x"^2 = 0 => 4"V" = 4"x"^3`

⇒ V = x3         ....(v)

Putting V = x3 in (i) , we have 

y = `"x"^3/"x"^2 = "x"`

Here, y = x ⇒ cuboid is a cube.

Differentiating (iv) w.r.t.x, we have

`("d"^2"S")/"dx"^2 = (4 +(8"V")/"x"^3) >0`

Hence, surface area is minimum when given cuboid is a cube.
