- 1). Measure one side of a cube's face. For an example, let's say the face's side measures five inches.
- 2). Square the side's length to find the area of one of the cube's faces. In this example, five inches multiplied by five inches equals 25 square inches.
- 3). Multiply the face's area by four to calculate the cube's lateral area. Finishing the example, 25 square inches multiplied by four equals 100 square inches.
