Solution

\[\text { The dimensions of the cuboidal box are 5 cm  }\times 5 cm \times 4 cm . \]

\[\text { Surface area of the cuboidal box = 2 } \times (\text { length } \times \text { breadth + breadth } \times \text { height + length  }\times \text { height })\]

\[ = 2 \times (5 \times 5 + 5 \times 4 + 5 \times 4)\]

\[ = 2 \times (25 + 20 + 20)\]

\[ = 130 {cm}^2\]
