Answer:

108

Explanation:

Surface area = total area of net

The net is made up of 2 unique shapes

A square with a side length of 6

The area of a square can be calculated by squaring the side length

6^2 = 36

The area of the square = 36

The net is also made up of 4 triangles

The triangles have a base length of 6 and a height of 6

The area of a triangle can be calculated by using the formula A = (bh) / 2

Where b = base length and h = height

If the triangles have a base length of 6 then b = 6 and if they have a height of 6 then h = 6

So A = 6*6/2

6 * 6 = 32

32/2 = 18

We then multiply that by 4 to get the area of all four triangles

18 * 4 = 72

Finally we add the areas together

72 + 36 = 108

The surface area is 108
