Question

Use the net of the square pyramid to calculate its surface area. 2. Find the Surface Area of the Square Pyramid, 10 yd 16:10 Solution: Find the Surface Area of this ruha ini

Answer 1

To calculate the surface aarea, we will use the formula;

T.S.A = 1/2 (pl) + B

where;

p= perimeter of the base

l= slant height

B= area of the base

From the diagram

l= 10 yard

P= 4(16) = 64 yard

B= 16 x 16= 256 yards

Substitute the value into the formula;

T.S.A = 1/2 (64)(10) + 256

=320 + 256

=576 inches²
