oh ok thanks

jhonyy9:

there is 9 ft the length of the base ? and 7,8 ft the lengthof the height ?

jhonyy9:

yes ?

hannahj:

maybe this could help you out. The formula to calculate the total surface area of a triangular pyramid is 1⁄2(a × b) + 3⁄2(b × s).

idk that's why im asking for help lol

hannahj:

actually I think I figured the answer out. So we can remove A and C. now what do you think the answer is B or D?

kenziegray7965liner:

bb I think

kenziegray7965liner:

*b*

hannahj:

no

jhonyy9:

there are 4 equilateral congruent triangles so just calcule area of one from these 4 and multiplie this area by 4 use formula A_triangle = base × height /2

Dam bro can solve

chat I'm late

surjithayer:

total surface area=area of four equilateral triangles \[=4\times \frac{ 1 }{ 2}\times 9\times \times 7.8=140.4~ sq.ft.\]

2 bh, right??? Because 2 equilateral triangles equal 1 square, so 4 of them would be 2 square's
