Question

Use a net of the square pyramid, if necessary, to find the surface area of the pyramid.

Answer 1

Answer:

160 units squared

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the surface area of one of the triangles;

(8*6*0.5)

24

Next, we find the surface area of all of the triangles;

(24*4)

96

The next step is to find the surface area of the square;

(8*8)

64

The last step is to fins the surface area of the whole thing.

(96+64)

160

The surface area of the pyramid is going to be 160 units squared

Answer 2

Answer:

160

Step-by-step explanation:

You take the area of one of the triangles, which is 24, multiply that by 4. You get 96. You then add 64, the area of the square base, and end up with 160.
