Solution

Length of the box, l = 20 cm

Breadth of the box, b = 12 cm

Height of the box, h = 10 cm

∴ The surface area of the vertical faces of the box

= 2(l + b) × h

= 2(20 + 12) × 10

= 2 × 32 × 10

= 640 cm2

Also,

The total surface area of the box

= 2(lb + bh + hl)

= 2(20 × 12 + 12 × 10 + 10 × 20)

= 2(240 + 120 + 200)

= 2 × 560

= 1120 cm2

Thus, the surface area of the vertical faces and the total surface area of the box are 640 cm2 and 1120 cm2, respectively.
