Question

Find the following for the given pyramid: Slant height, lateral area, surface area, and volume. Please show all work!

Answer 1

You have:
1)The slant height is:
Slant height=√[(8 inches)²+(8 inches)²]
Slant height=10 inches
2)The lateral area is:
LA=(Perimeter)(Slant height)/2
LA=(6 inches)(4)(10 inches)/2
LA=120 inches²
3)The Surface area is:
SA=Base area+(PerimeterxSlant height/2)
SA=(6 inches)²+(24 inchesx10 inches/2)
SA=156 inches²
4)The volume is:
V=(6 inches)²(8 inches/3)
V=96 inches³
