The triangular sides have a base of 230 meters and height of 187 meters. The pyramid has a height of 147 meters. What is the surface area of the pyramid? 86,020 meters squared 138,920 meters squared 224,940 meters squared 2,592,100 meters squared

Answer 1

hope i helped thank you

Explanation:

Answer 2

138,920 m²

Explanation:

A square pyramid has 1 square base and 4 lateral triangular faces.

Area of square pyramid is given as BASE Area (BA) + ½*Perimeter of Base (P) × Slant height

Area of pyramid =
`b^2 + (1)/(2)*4(b)*l`

Where,

b = base length = 230 m

l = slant height = 187 m (height of the triangular sides)

Surface area =
`230^2 + (1)/(2)*4(230)*187`

`= 52900 + 2(230)*187`

`= 52900 + 86020`

`= 138920`

Surface area of the pyramid = 138,920 m²
