Cube Surface Area Calculator

    Calculate cube surface area from edge length, volume, total surface area, space diagonal, or face diagonal.

    Total surface area is separate from one-face area; the space diagonal and face diagonal are different measurements.

    Cube surface area from edge length

    English search results expect a direct edge-length workflow, with reverse inputs for volume and diagonals. This calculator keeps surface area as the main answer and also reports one-face area, volume, and both diagonals.

    S — total cube surface area; a — edge length.

    S_f — area of one square face; a — edge length.

    d — space diagonal; a — edge length.
