Detailed Solution

Given that, a small indoor greenhouse is made entirely with the glass. The greenhouse is cuboid. The length of the house is l=30cm, the breadth of the house is b=25cm  and the height of the house is h=25cm.
Since the glass is on the 6 sides of the greenhouse.
So, the area of the glass=Surface area of the greenhouse.
Since the surface area of the cuboid is given by,
S=2(lb+bh+hl) .
Therefore, S=2(30×25+25×25+25×30) S=2750+625+750 S=2×2125 S=4250cm2.
Thus, the area of the glass is 4250cm2 .
Hence, option 2 is correct.
