Answer:

We can find the surface area of any pyramid by adding up the areas of its lateral faces and its base.

Surface area of any pyramid = area of base + area of each of the lateral faces

Example:A=lw+l(w2)2+h2+w(l2)2+h2=3·2+3·(2

2)2+82+2·(3

2)2+82≈46.46559

A building is 200ft long and 140 ft wide a 1/500 model is built of the building how long and how wide is the model?

Katena32 [7]

Let's start with the length. All you need to do is multiply is by 1/500.
You could also find the decimal equivalent to 1/500.
1/500= .002
200×.002= .4
So length of the model is .4 ft.
The width:
.002×140=.28
The width of the model is .28 ft.
The length of the model is .4 ft and the width of the model is .28 ft.
