Find the lateral area of the square pyramid shown, to the nearest whole number.
Find the bottom and each side, then add them together.
i just cant figure out the perimeter to complete the formula...? help
Well as I said, find the bottom. The same way you'd find the surface area of a square /4
A. 7294 yd2 B. 3192 yd2 C. 4758 yd2 D. 3647 yd2
1764.. but how do i find the sides?
1/2*1764*(side)+(42)..?
lateral area= pl/2 P= perimiter of square(base) l=slant height. slant height by l=h^2 + (0.5side)^2 and taking its square root.
1444.25 how do i put that on square root on the calc
i know i sound so dumb but i just need quick reviews of stuff.. like how to use a calculator LOL
\[\sqrt1444.25\]=38.0033
What kind of calculator do you have?
the cheap one .. my 100$ the buttons r kinda worn off so its hard to c n yes i got 38 also but thats not one of the answers
my 100$ calc**
38 is the slant height. lateral area= pl/2 p=perimiter of square(base) l=38
Is a texas instruments calc?
wow sry been doing hw too long
yep
Haha its all good. I know how you feel. Then the square root button should be in the left-most row somewhere. Halfway down ish, You might have to press 2nd first.
do u add pl or *
p*l. So ((42*4)*38)/2= lateral area
I got B.
i tried all sorts of ways n got none of them hm, thank u
42*4=168 168*38=6384 6384/2=3192.
ahhh ok im putting it in wrong thanks so much honestly, i have a couple more exams to cram in fml
