If the height of each side of the pyramid is 4 yards, then you have to figure out each of the four sides and add them to the base.
Luckily, this is easy.
The base: l x w = 6 yds x 6 yds = 36 sq. yds.
The sides: 1/2 x l x w = 1/2 x 6 yds x 4 yds = 12 sq. yds
There are four sides, so 12 sq. yds. x 4 = 36 sq. yds.
Add the base, and 36 sq. yds. + 12 sq. yds. = 48 sq. yds.
That's your answer!

What is the formula to find the area of pyramid?
It has to do with the surface area formula: To find the total surface area of a pyramid, use this equation: Surface Area = B + 1/2 * P * s B = base area P = perimeter of the base s = slant height To find the volume of a Pyramid, substitute into this equation: V=1/3Bh B=base area h=height of pyramid

What is the mathematical formula for calculating the surface area of a truncated pyramid?
To calculate the surface area of a truncated pyramid, you first take the surface area of each side. That would be the base time the straight height. If it is a 4 side pyramid with equivelant sides, multiply that answer by 4.
How do you find the Surface area of pyramids?
The surface area of a pyramid is the area of all the faces of the pyramid, for a pyramid with apex in the centre and a regular polygon as its base, (the bottom of a pyramid is the base, it is regular if all sides are the same length) the surface area is: B + 1/2(P * H) where B is the area of the base, P is the perimeter (area around) the base and H is the height of the pyramid.
What is the surface area of a rectangluar pyramid?
Area of the base (length x width) x height of prism
What is the surface area of the right square pyramid in square meters?
It depends on the dimensions of the base and the height (slant or vertical) of the pyramid.
What is the height of a cylinder that has a diameter of 24 yards and a surface area of 1206 square yards and how do you find that out?
The circumference is 24*Pi yards.The surface area = circumference x heightthereforeheight = surface area / circumference = 1206 sq.yd. / 24*Pi yd. = 15.9951 yards or 16 yards (rounded).
What is the slant height of a pyramid that has all sides as equilateral triangles with sides of length of 9 cm and the surface area of the pyramid is 140.4 square cm?
The surface area of the pyramid is superfluous to calculating the slant height as the slant height is the height of the triangular side of the pyramid which can be worked out using Pythagoras on the side lengths of the equilateral triangle: side² = height² + (½side)² → height² = side² - ¼side² → height² = (1 - ¼)side² → height² = ¾side² → height = (√3)/2 side → slant height = (√3)/2 × 9cm = 4.5 × √3 cm ≈ 7.8 cm. ---------------------------- However, the surface area can be used as a check: 140.4 cm² ÷ (½ × 9 cm × 7.8 cm) = 140.4 cm² ÷ 35.1 cm² = 4 So the pyramid comprises 4 equilateral triangles - one for the base and 3 for the sides; it is a tetrahedron.
