A metalworker is creating decorative points in the form of triangular pyramids to go on top of a fence she is building. She wants to know the surface area of each pyramid. Use the surface area formula to find the surface area of each pyramid based on the figure.

The surface area of a triangular pyramid can be found using the formula:
Surface Area = Base Area + Triangle Area
The base area is the area of the triangular base of the pyramid, which can be calculated using the formula:
Base Area = (1/2) * base * height
The triangle area is the combined area of the three triangular faces of the pyramid, which can be calculated using the formula:
Triangle Area = (1/2) * base * height
Therefore, to find the surface area of each pyramid, you would calculate the base area and triangle area separately and then add them together.
