Find the total area for the regular pyramid ( follow the answer set up in the picture)

T.A. = 144 + 36√3

Step-by-step explanation:

The pyramid has a regular triangle for a base.  The other three faces are isosceles triangles.

The height of base can be found by dividing it into two right triangles.  We can either use properties of a 30-60-90 triangle, or use Pythagorean theorem.

h = 6√3

So the area of the base is:

A = 1/2 bh

A = 1/2 (12)(6√3)

A = 36√3

Similarly, the height of the three isosceles triangles can be found by dividing them into two right triangles and using Pythagorean theorem.

h = √(10² - 6²)

h = 8

So the area of the isosceles triangles is:

A = 1/2 bh

A = 1/2 (12)(8)

A = 48

So the total surface area of the pyramid is:

T.A. = 3(48) + 36√3

T.A. = 144 + 36√3

i think it is everything has to equal 180 so, if i correct 4=c. 6=d. 8=a. 7=b. and the last question would be c. because they are parallel lines and they are congruent.

step-by-step explanation:

the reason everything has to equal to 180 is because that is how it works. i'm guessing that is its rule. 4 and 8 are congruent and parallel so, that would be 30+30 because they have the same number. it would equal 60. 6 and 7 are congruent and parallel so, that would be 30+30 because they have the same number. it would equal 60. 60+60 is 180. so, now you have your answer
