Answer 1

Answer:

B. 18 sq in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of the triangular pyramid excluding the base = area of the three triangular faces = 3(½ × base × height)

Where,

base = 3 inches

height = ED = 4 inches

Plug in the known values into the equation

Surface area of the triangular pyramid excluding the base = 3(½ × 3 × 4)

= 3(3 × 2)

= 3(6)

= 18 sq in.
