It depends on the shape of the base. A pyramid or a prism can have any polygonal shape as base and the formula for its area will depend on the shape. With other solid figures, the base may simply be the face tat the object happens to be "sitting" on: roll it and another face becomes the base.

What is the formula for the area of a pyramid?
Ok what I think you mean is volume of a pyramid... but ill answer both. Area of a triangle: Base x height x 0.5 Volume of a pyramid: Base area x height x 1/3
How long is the base of a triangle whose area is 108 and height is 8?
The area of a triangle is one half base times height. 1/2 Base Height = Area 1/2 Base 8 = 108 Base 8 = 216 Base = 27
What is the formula to get the area of a triangle?
The formula to calculate the area of a triangle is A = 1/2 * base * height, where A represents the area, the base is the length of the triangle's base, and the height is the perpendicular distance from the base to the opposite vertex. This formula is derived from the fact that the area of a triangle is half the product of its base and height. By plugging in the values for the base and height into the formula, you can easily determine the area of the triangle.
What is the area of a parallelogram with base and height?
base*height
Can you find the volume of a cylinder when they only tell you the base area and the height?
Volume = (height)(area base)
