the question is:
use the formal t find the surface area of the square pyramid( its 6ft3ft and 3ft it wont let me put link to pic so yea)
A:45FT^2
B:81FT^2
C:36FT^2
D:72FT^2
I thinks its c
but idk for sure
oml thanks bobpursley thanks so much
what are those dimensions to? base side, slant height?
bace is 3ft side is 3ft and height is 6ft
height, or slant height? big difference.
i think slant im not sure
its slant
if slant height
area=3x3+4*1/2*6*3= 9+36=45ft^2
so its 45FT^2?
To find the surface area of the square pyramid, you need to calculate the sum of the areas of its individual faces. The formula for the surface area of a square pyramid is:
Surface Area = Base Area + (0.5 x Perimeter x Slant Height)
In this case, the base of the square pyramid is a square with sides of 3 feet, so its base area is 3^2 = 9 square feet.
Next, we need to find the slant height of the pyramid. The slant height is the height of each triangular face.
Considering the given dimensions, it is unclear which measurement corresponds to the pyramid's height. Is it 6 feet, 3 feet, or neither of those? Please provide more information so that I can help you with the correct calculation.
