Answer:
The total surface area is 896
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>The square pyramid is a solid with square base and symmetric 4 triangular faces.</em>
Given that the square base is 14 m and height is 24 m.
The apex of pyramid, center of square and center of any edge of square make a right angled triangle.
Let that height if triangular face be "x".
by pythagoras theorm ,
x = 25 m
the area of square base is
the area of each triangular side is <em></em>
such are 4 triangles, thus
Thus the total surface area is 196 + 700 = 896
