<u>Given</u>:
The length of DE is 8 cm and the measure of ∠ADE is 60°.
We need to determine the surface area of the pyramid.
<u>Length of AD:</u>
The length of AD is given by


Length of AD = 8 cm
<u>Slant height:</u>
The slant height EF can be determined using the trigonometric ratio.
Thus, we have;




Thus, the slant height EF is 4√3
<u>Surface area of the square pyramid:</u>
The surface area of the square pyramid can be determined using the formula,

Substituting the values, we have;




The exact form of the area of the square pyramid is 
Substituting √3 = 1.732 in the above expression, we have;


Rounding off to one decimal place, we get;

Thus, the area of the square pyramid is 174.8 cm²
Add the 3 ratio portions together: 1 + 4 + 7 = 12
Divide total length by 12:
84/12 = 7
Multiply each ratio portion by 7:
1 x 7 = 7
4 x 7 = 28
7 x 7 = 49
The longest piece is 49 cm
22 degrees; you can subtract 180-158 to get the measure of U and U is equal to S because of parallel lines
