To find the surface area of a square pyramid, you can use the formula:
Surface Area = Base Area + (0.5) * Perimeter of Base * Slant Height
In this case, the base of the square pyramid is a square, so the base area is just the area of the square:
Base Area = Side length * Side length
The perimeter of the base is simply 4 times the side length of the square. The slant height of the pyramid is the height of the triangular faces, which is not given in the options provided.
Therefore, without the given slant height, it is not possible to accurately determine the surface area of the square pyramid.
