What's the question? Total surface area or lateral surface area?

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

|dw:1366045119286:dw| The area of the base is made up of 6 triangles with base of 10 m and height of 5*sqrt(3) m. The lareal surface is made up of 6 triangles with base of 10 m and height of 13 m.

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Abase = 6 * bh/2 = 6 * (10)(5*sqrt(3))/2 Alateral = 6 * bh/2 = 6 * (10 * 13)/2 Surface Area = Abase + Alateral

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

That's the lateral area 6 * 10 * 13 / 2

Now you need to find the area of the base. You have 6 triangles, each one of them with a base of 10 m and a height of 5*sqrt(3).
