Area of square base = 324 m²

Length of the square side = √324 = 18

The side of the square is the base of the triangle.

Area of triangle = (1/2)*base* height

135 = (1/2)*18* h

135 = 9h

135/9 = h

15 = h

height = 15 m


To get the height of the Pyramid, the height of the Triangle and half the length of the side of the square form a right angled triangle.

Hypotenus = 15
Half length of square = 18/2 = 9
Height of Pyramid = H

By Pythagoras' Theorem:

15² = H² + 9²

225 =H² + 81

 H² + 81 = 225

H²  = 225 - 81

H²  = 144          Take square root of both sides

H  = √144

H = 12

Height = 12 meters.

Find the surface area of the rectangular box below
REY [17]

Answer:

SA = 904 in.²

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface Area (SA) of a cuboid: 2(lw) + 2(wh) + 2(hl)

SA = 2(lw) + 2(wh) + 2(hl)

  • l = 36 in.
  • w = 10 in.
  • h = 2 in.

Substitute the given values and multiply:

SA = 2(lw) + 2(wh) + 2(hl)

SA = 2(36)(10) + 2(10)(2) + 2(2)(36)

SA = 2(360) + 2(20) + 2(72)

SA = 720 + 40 + 144

SA = 904 in.²

Hope this helps!
