what does this formula means-2lh+2bh+lb

The formula is 2lh+2bh+2lb
Taking 2 as common
=2(lh+bh+lb)
which can be written as
2(lb+bh+hl)
This is the formula of total surface area.

The Total Surface Area of cuboid
 
  • 2
Suppose we have a cuboid shape room like as below 

 

So total surface area of room includes - length, breadth, height, floor and ceiling of room. 

so the formula to find the total surface area of cuboid = 2 [LB + BH + HL] 

or in other words 
A cuboid has 6 rectangular faces, so the area of all 6 rectangular faces will be the total surface area of cuboid. 

Calculating Total Surface Area of Cuboid or Surface Area of Cuboid is one and the same thing. If in a question you are asked to find surface area of cuboid that means you have to find the total surface area of cuboid. 

Let's try out some examples to find total surface area of Cuboid 

Example 1 :A plastic box is 1.5m long, 1.25m wide and 65cm deep, Ignoring the thickness of plastic box, calculate its total surface area 
Answer: Below things are given in the example 
Length = 1.5m 
Breadth = 1.25m 
Height(depth) = 0.65m [i.e. 65cm = 0.65m] 

Total surface area of cuboid is = 2[LB + BH + HL] 

T.S.A of cuboid = 2[1.5 X 1.25 + 1.25 X 0.65 + 0.65 X 1.5] m2 

T.S.A of cuboid = 2[1.87 + 0.81 + 0.97] m2 

T.S.A of cuboid = 2 X 3.65 m2 

T.S.A of cuboid = 7.30 m2
