What would change if the surface area were measured in square centimeters?

A.
The surface area of the pyramid would decrease.

B.
The surface area of the pyramid would increase.

C.
The surface area of the pyramid would stay the same, but the number representing the surface area would decrease.

D.
The surface area of the pyramid would stay the same, but the number representing the surface area would increase.

can u help me?

That would be D. This is because the actual surface area isn't going to change based on how you represent it (like how 1/2 and 0.5 are the same number even though they are represented differently) however the number representing it would increase.

anonymous · Answer

A centimeter is a smaller unit than a meter, so it would require a higher number in order to equal the same surface area.

anonymous · Answer

Like, for insistence, an hour equals 60 minutes. It's like that.
