Answer

The surface area of the cube is \(\boxed{1176 \mathrm{~cm}^2}\).

Steps

Step 1 :The surface area of a cube is given by the formula \(6a^2\) where \(a\) is the length of a side of the cube. In this case, the side length is given as \(14 \mathrm{~cm}\).

Step 2 :Substitute \(14 \mathrm{~cm}\) into the formula and calculate the result.

Step 3 :\(6 * 14^2 = 1176\)

Step 4 :The surface area of the cube is \(\boxed{1176 \mathrm{~cm}^2}\).
