Question

The surface area of the square pyramid is 16 square inches. Find the value of x.

Answer 1

height h = 2.8284271247462 in

Explanation:

height h = 2.8284271247462 in

slant height s = 3 in

side length a = 2 in

lateral edge length e = 3.1622776601684 in

1/2 side length r = 1 in

volume V = 3.7712361663283 in³

lateral surface area L = 12 in²

base surface area B = 4 in²

total surface area A = 16 in²

Answer 2

x=6 2/5

Explanation:

I don't know how to explain other than doing the math of (x*5)/2=16
