7 0

If it's the height that from the tip of the pyramid to base SA= about 80.9

IF its slant height WHICH IS THE ONE YOUR LOOKING FOR SA= 75

$\bf ~\hspace{12em}\left( \cfrac{2n}{-3n\cdot -2n^2} \right)^4

\cfrac{2n}{-3n\cdot -2n^2}\implies \cfrac{1}{-3n}\cdot \cfrac{2n}{-2n^2}\implies \cfrac{1}{-3n}\cdot \cfrac{2n}{2n\cdot -n}\implies \cfrac{1}{-3n}\cdot \cfrac{2n}{2n}\cdot \cfrac{1}{-n}$

$\bf \cfrac{1}{-3n}\cdot \boxed{1}\cdot \cfrac{1}{-n}\implies \cfrac{1}{-3n\cdot -n}\implies \cfrac{1}{3n^2}
\\\\[-0.35em]
\rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\
\left( \cfrac{2n}{-3n\cdot -2n^2} \right)^4\implies \left( \cfrac{1}{3n^2} \right)^4\implies \stackrel{\textit{distributing the exponent}}{\cfrac{1^4}{3^4n^{2\cdot 4}}}\implies \cfrac{1}{81n^8}$
