Given:

The dimensions:

Square pyramid

Square base: 2x2

1 out of 4 triangles: 1/2x2x5

4 triangles: 2x2x5

To find:

The SURFACE AREA of the square pyramid

Find answer:

Step 1

Find the area of the square base -

Square base:

SA = L x W

= 2 x 2

= 4

<em>The surface area of the square is 4 square inches</em>

<em></em>

Step 2

Find the area of the 4 Triangles:

We will use a different formula here, to find 1 triangle, we will have to do:

SA = \frac{1}{2} *B*H

To find 2 triangles, we will do:

SA = B*H

But to find 4 triangles in just 1 step, we will do:

SA=2*B*H

Let's do it!

SA = 2*2*5\\=2*10\\=20

<em>The surface area of the 4 triangles are 20 square inches</em>

<em></em>

Step 3

Add answers to get FINAL ANSWER

Easy!

20+4=24

<h2>Hence, the Surface Area of the Square Pyramid is 24 square inches</h2>

<em></em>
