Answer:
1) Area of all the 4 triangles = 96 square centimeters.
2) Area of the square = 36 square centimeters
3) Total surface area of the pyramid = 132 square centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
base b = 6/2 = 3cm.
height h = 8cm
Area of a triangle = 2 × 1/2bh = bh = 3 × 8 = 24 square centimeters.
Since all the triangles have same area, therefore
1) Area of all the 4 triangles = 4 × 24 = 96 square centimeters
2) Area of the square = length × length = 6 × 6 = 36 square centimeters
3) Total surface area of the pyramid = Area of the 4 triangles + Area of the square = 96 + 36 = 132 square centimeters
