    Hi Vasu,

    For caclulations, Lateral Surface Area means curved surface area. It's called lateral surface area for cube and cuboid and curved surface area for cylinder, cone and hemisphere.

    The formulae are

     

    Cube

    Lateral Surface Area = 4a2

    Total Surface Area = 6a2

    Volume = a3

    Cuboid

    Lateral Surface Area = 2(lh + bh) = 2 (l + b) h

    Total Surface Area = 2(lb + bh + lh)

    Volume = l x b x h

     

    Cylinder

    Curved Surface Area = 2πrh

    Total Surface Area = 2πrh + πr2 + πr2 = 2πrh + 2πr2 = 2πr(r + h)

    Volume = πr2h

     

    Cone

    Curved Surface Area = πrl

    Total Surface Area = πrl + πr2 = πr(r + l)

    Volume = 1/3 πr2h

     

    Hemisphere

    Curved Surface Area = 2πr2

    Total Surface Area = 2πr2 + πr2 = 3πr2

    Volume = 2/3 πr3

     

    Sphere

    Surface Area = 4πr2

    Volume = 4/3 πr3
