Answer:
D
Explanation:
Lateral SA = area of the 4 triangles
Formula to be used :-
Area (triangle) = 1/2bh
=> 4 x 1/2 x 9 x 12
=> 108 x 2
=> 216 cm²
Total SA = LSA + area of the square
Formula to be used :-
Area (square) = side length x side length
=> 216 + 9 x 9
=> 216 + 81
=> 297 cm²
The correct option is (D).
