Answer:

Surface area of square pyramid = 380 m²

Explanation:

Given:

Side of square base =10 m

Height of Square pyramid = 14 m

Find:

Surface area of square pyramid

Computation:

Surface area of square pyramid = Surface area of Base + 4[Surface area of triangle]

Surface area of square pyramid = [side x side] + 4[(1/2)(b)(h)]

Surface area of square pyramid = [10 x 10] + 4[(1/2)(10)(14)]

Surface area of square pyramid = 100 + 4[70]

Surface area of square pyramid = 100 + 280

Surface area of square pyramid = 380 m²
