> this is the sign for the larger absolute value
Wouldn’t it be 0, as that’s when their values are both equal to each other, making the equation true?

The general formula for the lateral surface area of a regular pyramid is:

Where:
p=perimeter of a base
l=slant height
a.
a=3ft
l=4ft
p=5*a=5*3=15ft

b.
a=2.5ft
l=4ft
p=6*a=6*2.5=15ft

c.
a=1.9ft
l=4ft
p=8*a=8*1.9=15.2ft

d.
Based on a lateral surface area the blue umbrella is best choice. But, the best umbrella overall is the one with the greatest base area. General formula for regular polygon is:

For pentagon:
A=15.48ft^2
For hexagon:
A=16.24ft^2
For octagon:
A=17.43ft^2
Blue umbrella is still best choice.
