Given the value of side, we have to calculate the area of Cube.
Submitted by Nidhi, on February 27, 2022

Problem statement

In this program, we will read the length of sides of the Cube from the user and calculate the area of Cube. Then we will print the result.

Java program to calculate the area of Cube

The source code to calculate the area of Cube is given below. The given program is compiled and executed successfully.

// Java program to calculate the 
// area of Cube

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Main {
  static float calcuateAreaOfCube(float side) {
    float result = 0.0F;

    result = 6.0F * side * side;

    return result;
  }

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    Scanner SC = new Scanner(System.in);

    float side = 0;
    float area = 0;

    System.out.printf("Enter the length of side: ");
    side = SC.nextFloat();

    area = calcuateAreaOfCube(side);

    System.out.printf("Area of Cube is: %f\n", area);
  }
}

Output

Enter the length of side: 10.23
Area of Cube is: 627.917358

Explanation

In the above program, we imported the "java.util.Scanner" package to read input from the user. And, created a public class Main. It contain two static methods calcuateAreaOfCube() and main().

The calcuateAreaOfCube() method is used to calculate the area of the Cube based on the given base and altitude.

The main() method is an entry point for the program. Here, we read base, altitude from the user using Scanner class. Then we calculated the area of Cube using the calcuateAreaOfCube() method and printed the result.
