Answer:

The surface area of a square pyramid is the sum of the areas of all its 4 triangular side faces with the base area of the square pyramid. If a, h, and l are the base length, the height of the pyramid, and slant height respectively, then the surface area of the square pyramid = a2+ 2al (or) a2+2a √a24+h2 a 2 4 + h 2 .
