Answer:

225 square feet

Explanation:

the base of the pyramid would be 76 ft², since 12*6=72. Then you get the surface area of the sides. 2 of the sides would be 48 ft², since (12*8)/2=48. The other 2 sides would be 28.5 ft², since (6*9.5)/2-28.5. Then you just add the surface areas of all the sides; 76+48+48+28.5+28.5 to get 225.

Hope this helps! :)
