To find the lateral surface area of a pyramid, you can find the area of each triangle, A = 1/2bh or A = 1/2lw, then multiply by the number of triangles, which would be based on the number of sides of the base; or you can take half the perimeter and multiply by the slant height.

a. Yes
b. No
Step-by-step explanation:
To find if an ordered pair is a solution to the inequality, substitute its x and y values for the x and y in the inequality and solve. If the equation is true, then it is a solution. If it is not, then it is not a solution.
1) First, substitute the x and y values of (3, 1) into the inequality. So, substitute 3 for x and 1 for y:
1 is greater than or equal to 1, so (3,1) is a solution.
2) Second, do the same with the point (1, -4). Substitute 1 for x and -4 for y:
However, -4 is not greater than or equal to -3, thus (1, -4) is not a solution.
