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.
Surface Area= 1/2perimeter x slant height + B * * * * * Perimeter = perimeter of base. B = Area of base.
A regular polygon has equal sides and angles. A polygon has a surface area but a polyhedron has many faces as for example a pyramid.
Area = B + ( (PH)/2 ) Where B is the base area, P is the base perimeter and H is the piramid height.
You require a lot more information before the question can be answered. First, you do not solve a pyramid. A pyramid is a 3-dimensional shape - it is there. You do not solve it. You can Solve for its surface area, or its base area or its height or something. But the question does not say what you are trying to solve for. Second. You do not specify whether it is a triangular pyramid, a quadrilateral one, pentagonal or so on. If the question were about the base area, that would not matter, but if it is about anything else, that piece of information is critical. So I suggest you think about what information you do have and what you want to find out and then resubmit a sensible question that someone can answer.

It is 288 cm^2.

the question is the anwser
Surface Area= 1/2perimeter x slant height + B * * * * * Perimeter = perimeter of base. B = Area of base.
It is not possible to answer the question without knowing if the pyramid is a triangle based, square based or other polygon based pyramid.
It is not possible to answer the question because the shape of the base is not known. As a result the surface area of the base, and hence the total surface area cannot be calculated.
A regular polygon has equal sides and angles. A polygon has a surface area but a polyhedron has many faces as for example a pyramid.
Area = B + ( (PH)/2 ) Where B is the base area, P is the base perimeter and H is the piramid height.

Find the surface area of each individual face and then add them together to give the total surface area of the pyramid.
Hexagonal prisms cannot be regular. If you tried to make one it would end up being a hexagon since six equilateral triangles make a hexagon. Therefore, there is no surface area.
