Question

What is the surface area of this regular pyramid? A. 230 in2 B. 304 in2 C. 480 in2 D. 544 in2

Answer 1

B: 304in^2

Explanation:

One triangle face: (8)(15) ÷ 2 = 60

Four triangle faces: 60 x 4 = 240

Bottom Face: (8)(8) = 64

Total Surface Area: Four triangle faces + Bottom Face

Total Surface Area: 240 + 64

Total Surface Area: 304in^2
