What is the surface area of a triangulsr pyramid?

If its a triangular based pyramid (tetrahedron) then it will have 4 equilateral triangle faces and so find the area of one face and multiply it by 4 to give the total surface area.


If a square pyramid has a base of 6.3 meters and a height of 4 meters what is the surface area?

To find the height of the triangles on the sides of the pyramid, we use pythagorean theorem. We slice vertically through the center of the pyramid to find a triangle with base of 6.3 and height of 4. Using the pythagorean theorem, we can find that each side of this triangle will be sqrt(42+3.152). This will be the height of the triangles on the sides of the pyramid, let's call it h.So, the area of each triangle will be 1/2*6.3*h. There are 4 of these triangles.The area of the base of the pyramid will be 6.32The total surface area of the pyramid will be SA = 2*6.3*sqrt(42+3.152)+6.32SA ~= 103.84 m2


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 a formula for surface area of triangle?

K, well there is no surface area of a triangle, because a triangle is a 2s figure. Surface area is for a 3d figure. To find the regular area of a triangle the formula is 1/2 of the base X the height :) gl :P


How do you find the surface area of a rectagle?

to find the surface area of the triangle we just need to multiply the length with breath. area=lengthXbreadth
