Answer:
<h3>(A)</h3>The slant height of the pyramid refers to the height of a face of the pyramid.
Notice that each slant height forms a right triangle like the image attached shows, where the hypothenuse is the slant height. Additionally, the bottom leg is 1 yard, because is half of the base side, and the other leg is 2 yard. Using Pythagorean's Theorem, we have
Therefore, the slant height is the square root of 5 yard.
<h3>(B)</h3>The surface area of the composite figure is the sum of the surface area of both volumes.
<h3>Surface area of the cube.</h3>Notice that we only included 5 faces of the cube, that is because the sixth is the base of the pyramid, so if we include it here, we would have the wrong total surface area.
<h3>Surface area of the pyramid.</h3>Where is the perimeter of the base and
is the slant height.
Therefore, the surface od the composite figure is
To find the cubic yards of concrete, we need to subtract the volume of the figures, because the concrete would be inside the space between the cube and the pyramid.
Where and
Therefore, it would be needed 5.33 cubic yards of concrete to make the planter.
