Question

A pyramid has a square base with sides 8" and a slant height of 5".
Total Area

Answer 1

it's 144 square units hope it helps

Answer 2

There is no "area" for a pyramid.

If you are referring to surface area however:

SA = 2bs + r^2
SA = 2(8)(5) + (8)^2
SA = 80 + 64
SA = 144

So the SURFACE area is 144''
