How do you find lateral area of a square pyramid?

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.


What is the lateral surface area of this square pyramid that has a base length of 4 centimeters and a slant height of 9 centimeters?

72 cm square.


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 lateral area and surface area of a regular square pyramid?

Lateral area: Twice the side of the square times the slant height. Surface area: The side of the square squared plus twice the side of the square times the slant height. a=side of square b=slant height L.A.=2(ab) S.A.=(a)(a)+(2(ab))

How many lateral faces does a square pyramid have?

Lateral faces are the number of faces excluding the base. Since the square is the base, the other 4 sides will each be touching a lateral face to form a square pyramid (or it wont be a pyramid). So, there are 4.


What is the surface area of a square pyramid?

It is the lateral area (which is 1/2 the perimeter multiplied by the slant height), plus the area of the base.
