Answer:

Correct answer is C)\ 254\ m^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the given diagram, we know the following details:

Height of the triangular pyramid is <em>14m</em>.

<em>Side of base</em> = <em>10m </em>

Height of Triangular base = <em>8.7m</em>

Formula for <em>surface area of triangular pyramid</em>:

\text{Area = Area of Triangular base + 3 }\times\text{Area of side triangle}

(Triangular base is shown in the dotted lines in the question figure.

The other 3 triangles are the side triangles.)

We know that,

\text{Area of a triangle = }\dfrac{1}{2} \times \text{Base} \times \text{Height}

\Rightarrow \text{Required Surface Area = } \dfrac{1}{2} \times 8.7 \times 10 + 3 \times \dfrac{1}{2} \times 14 \times 10\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}\times (87 + 3 \times 140)\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}\times (87 + 420)\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2} \times 507\\$\approx$ 254 m^{2}

Hence correct answer is C)\ 254\ m^{2}.
