There are two different ways to find surface area of square pyramid

1st

  • If you are given the slant height and the side length

[tex]\sf surface \ area \ = \ a^2 + 2(a)(l)[/tex]

  • a = side length
  • l = slant height

2nd

  • If you are given the height and the side length

[tex]\sf surface \ area = a^2+2a\sqrt{\dfrac{a^2}{4}+h^2 }[/tex]

  • a = side length
  • h = height

Step-by-step explanation: :)

You would first calculate the area of the base, which is length times width. You would then calculate the area of the faces, which is 1 2 (base times height) and multiply the result by 4 for the 4 faces. Finally, add the area of the base and the areas of the faces.
