You need some information about the height of the pyramid and the formula will depend on whether you have the vertical height or the slant height or the length of a lateral edge.

If a particular right square based pyramid has a volume of 63690 cubic meters and a height of thirty meters What is the number of meters in the length of the lateral height segment AB of a pyramid?
The formula for the volume of a pyramid such as you described would be: V = 1/3Ah where A is the area of the base (a square in this case) and h is the height of the pyramid. You know the volume and the height, so you can plug them into that formula to solve for A, the area of the square base: 63690 = 1/3A(30). A = 6369 square meters. Knowing the area of the square, and the fact that the formula for the area of a square is A = s2 where s is the length of a side, you can find the length of s by taking the square root of 6369. s = about 79.8 meters. The next steps will require some thinking about what that pyramid looks like and what the length of a lateral height segment would represent. Drawing a diagram often helps. If I understand correctly what you mean by "lateral height segment" of the pyramid, meaning the length of the segment from the center of a side at the bottom to the vertex at the top, that length would represent the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose legs are 30 meters (the inside height of the pyramid) and about 39.9 meters (half the length of a side, in other words the distance from the point at the center of the base to the center of the side). You can use the Pythagorean theorem to find that length: c2 = a2 + b2 c2 = 302 + 39.92 c2 = 900 + 1592 c2 = 2492 c = 49.9 meters (approximately)

What is the formula to find the area of a pyramid?
first you find the area of the base and then you find the area one side of the pyramid an you time it with 3 if it is a triangular pyramid or 4 if it is a square pyramid
What is the lateral area of a cube?
find the area of a base and then multiply by six. Then you square it. or 6 x ba (2)=lateral area
How do you find the lateral area of a triangular pyramid with the perimeter and slant height?
LA=1/2ps
How do you find the perpendicular height of a square based pyramid?
To find the perpendicular height of a square pyramid, first compute for the volume of the pyramid. Then divide the volume by the area of the base to find pyramid's height.
What is the lateral area of a rectangular pyramid?
Find th elateral area of a rectangular pyramid having height 9 , base lenght 6 and base width 7
How do you find the lateral area of a hexagonal pyramid?
Use the formula 1/2bh to find the area of a triangle side. Then multiply that by 6 because you have 6 sides on the base.
Find the lateral area of a regular pentagonal pyramid that has a slant height of 14in and a base side length of 6 in?

Why is it helpful to know the slant height of a pyramid to find its surface area?
Knowing the slant height helps because it represents the height of the triangle that makes up each lateral face. So, the slant height helps you to find the surface area of each lateral face.
How do you find lateral area of a regular square pyramid?
1/2(p)(sh) ~which means~ 1/2 x perimeter x slant height slant height= pathagorean theory= c squared= a squared+b squared
How do you find lateral area of a cylinder?
To find the lateral area of a cylinder, multiply the circumference (πd) by the height (πdh). After you have this, you can find the total surface area by adding twice the area of the base (2πr2).(Lateral area = πdh), (Surface area = πdh + 2πr2).
