Detailed Solution

Here, we have to find the formula for the total surface area of a cuboid.
Consider the cuboid:
Question ImageAssume the length, breadth and height of the cuboid be l, b and respectively.
A cuboid's total surface area (TSA) is the sum of the areas of its six rectangular sides.
So, the TSA of cuboid =l×b+b×h+h×l+l×b+b×h+h×l TSA=2(lb+bh+hl) Therefore, the total surface area of a cuboid is 2(lb+bh+hl).
Hence option (1) is correct.
