It is 125 square units.
Total surface area= 1/2 times the perimeter of the base times the slant height plus the area of the base Lateral surface area= 1/2 times the perimeter times the slant height
(1/2 B)h another way is Lateral area + base area. Lateral area is 1/2 perimeter*slant height. You use this if you dont know the height but know the slant. or if you just like to do it this way
slant height of the pyramid Louvre in Paris=28 meters
It depends on the dimensions of the base and the height (slant or vertical) of the pyramid.
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.
Surface Area= 1/2perimeter x slant height + B * * * * * Perimeter = perimeter of base. B = Area of base.
Total surface area= 1/2 times the perimeter of the base times the slant height plus the area of the base Lateral surface area= 1/2 times the perimeter times the slant height
It is the lateral area (which is 1/2 the perimeter multiplied by the slant height), plus the area of the base.
The surface area of a cone: SA = pi*r² + pi*r*s (r is radius, s is slant height) The surface area of a pyramid: SA = [1/2 * Perimeter * Slant Height] + [Base Area]
Surface area of any pyramid is 1/2Pl + B; where P=perimeter of the base, l=slant height and B= Area of the base.
one half of the perimeter of the base times the slant height plus the area of the base or: 1/2Pl + B
1/2 times the perimeter of the base times slant height
LA=1/2ps
Surface Area = B + 1/2 * P * sB = base areaP = perimeter of the bases = slant height (meaning the lenght of a corner to the top)
(1/2 B)h another way is Lateral area + base area. Lateral area is 1/2 perimeter*slant height. You use this if you dont know the height but know the slant. or if you just like to do it this way
slant height of the pyramid Louvre in Paris=28 meters
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.
