To find the surface area of the square pyramid, we will use the formula below:


\text{Surface area =A+}(1)/(2)PS

where A is the area of the base

P is the perimeter

S is the slant height

From the question,

s= 6cm

l =4cm

Area of the base= l x l = 4 x 4 = 16 cm²


(1)/(2)ps=(1)/(2)*4*4*6=48\operatorname{cm}


\text{Surface area = 16+48=64cm}^2
