Answer:

The Area of square pyramid is 36 + 36
√(5) .

Explanation:

Given as :

For A square pyramid

The measure of each base side = b = 6 feet

The height of the pyramid = h = 6 feet

Let The Total area of pyramid = A square feet

Now, According to question

The area of square pyramid

Area = b² + 2 × b
\sqrt{(b^(2) )/(4)+h^(2)  }

Where b is the square base edge

And h is the pyramid height

I.e A = 6² + 2 × 6
\sqrt{(6^(2) )/(4)+6^(2)  }

Or, A = 36 + 12 ×
\sqrt{(36 )/(4)+36  }

Or, A = 36 + 12 ×
√(9+36)

Or, A = 36 + 12 ×
√(45)

Or, A = 36 + 12 × 3
√(5)

Or, A = 36 + 36
√(5)

So,The Area of square pyramid = A = 36 + 36
√(5)

Hence, The Area of square pyramid is 36 + 36
√(5) . Answer
