Answer:
638.32 yd²
Step-by-step explanation:
The surface area of any figure can be found by calculating the area of all the sides and finding the sum. In a rectangular pyramid, there is a rectangular base (l x w) and the same two triangles on one side and another two identical triangles on the other side.
Area of rectangle: A = l x w
Area of a triangle: A = 1/2(b)(h)
Rectangle: 16 x 13.4 = 214.4 yd²
Bottom/top triangles: 14.1 x 16 = 225.6 yd²
Side triangles: 14.8 x 13.4 = 198.32 yd²
Total: 198.32 + 225.6 + 214.4 = 638.32 yd²
