Sketch a net of it and then work out the area of each of its 5 netted components and then add them together
It is: base area+(4*triangle areas)
This is a popular topic, discussed in many places on the web. The attached link is one place that I like. If you want to look for others just google for surface area square pyramid.
To calculate the surface area of a regular pyramid, you need to find the area of the base and the area of the triangular faces. The surface area (SA) can be expressed as SA = Base Area + Lateral Area. For a square base, the base area is the side length squared, and the lateral area is found by calculating the area of each triangular face and summing them. If you provide the base side length and the height of the pyramid, I can help calculate the exact surface area.
Surface area of the pyramid: 4*0.5*144*sin(60) = 249 square cm to 3 significant figures
The surface area of a square pyramid depends on the lengths of the sides of the square base and of the vertical height. While the question does give two linear measures, it does not say which is which! And without that crucial bit of information, I cannot provide a more useful answer.
If it is a 4 faced tetrahedron pyramid then its complete surface area is 4*80 =320 square centimetres
total surface area is all of the area. ex. for a square pyramid it would be the area of the square on the bottom and the four triangle sides lateral surface area is all the surface area EXCEPT the base. ex. for a square pyramid it would be the area of the four sides of the pyramid. the bottom square is NOT included. for a triangular prism it would be the area of the three rectangle sides, NOT the two triangular sides
It is: base area+(4*triangle areas)
It depends on the dimensions of the base and the height (slant or vertical) of the pyramid.
The formula for a square pyramid is one square attached to four triangles which meet at a point.There are other formulae for the surface area or for the volume.
SA = s2 + 2 × s × l
