Surface area of the pyramid = area of bottom + area of all side triangles (4 of them) Bottom is length * width. Triangle is 0.5 * base * height Can you do the rest?

OpenStudy (usman1995):

@biglebow isnt that area of a triangle?

OpenStudy (usman1995):

planar triangle i meant

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well the surface area of any shape is the area of all of its faces added up together. And the answer is not 96, the bottom of the pyramid alone is 144.
