To find the surface area of a cube using the formula \( 6s^2 \), where \( s \) is the length of each side, we can substitute \( s = 10 \) cm into the formula:
\[
\text{Surface Area} = 6s^2 = 6(10)^2
\]
Now, calculate \( 10^2 \):
\[
10^2 = 100
\]
Now, substitute this back into the surface area formula:
\[
\text{Surface Area} = 6 \times 100 = 600
\]
Therefore, the surface area of the cube is:
\[
\text{Surface Area} = 600 \, \text{cm}^2
\]
The surface area of a cube with a side length of 10 cm is \( 600 \, \text{cm}^2 \).
\[
\text{Surface Area} = 6s^2 = 6(10)^2
\]
Now, calculate \( 10^2 \):
\[
10^2 = 100
\]
Now, substitute this back into the surface area formula:
\[
\text{Surface Area} = 6 \times 100 = 600
\]
Therefore, the surface area of the cube is:
\[
\text{Surface Area} = 600 \, \text{cm}^2
\]
The surface area of a cube with a side length of 10 cm is \( 600 \, \text{cm}^2 \).
