Answer:

The answer to your question is 420 ft²

Explanation:

Data

side = 6 ft

distance from the center to the vertex = 5 ft

height = 10 ft

Process

1.- Calculate the apothem

c² = a² + b²

a² = c² - b²

a² = 25 - 9

a² = 16

a = 4

2.- calculate the area of the base

Ab = 2(Perimeter x apothem)/2

Ab = (6 x 5) x 4

Ab = 120 ft²

3.- Calculate the lateral area

Al = (6 x 5) x 10

Al = 300 ft²

4.- Total area

At = 120 + 300

= 420 ft²
