Answer:

  • C. 144 +  36√3

Step-by-step explanation:

Area formula for equilateral triangle with side a:

  • A = √3/4a²

The base area is:

  • A = √3/4*12² = 36√3

The three lateral surfaces have same sides of 10, 10 and 12.

Find each surface area using heron's formula:

  • s = P/2 = (10 + 10 + 12)/2 = 16
  • s - a = 16 - 10 = 6
  • s - b = 6
  • s - c = 16 - 12 = 4
  • [tex]A = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)} =\sqrt{16*6*6*4} =48[/tex]

Total surface area is:

  • 48*3 +  36√3 =
  • 144 +  36√3

Correct choice is C
