Which expression can be used to find the surface area of the following square pyramid?

4[1/2(5 x 6)] + 6x6

Step-by-step explanation:

The first part of the expression is 4[1/2(5 x 6)]. This is the formula to find the surface area of the triangles. A regular triangle's area is 1/2(l*w). Since there are four trinagles, you have to multiply the whole expression by 4.

The second part of the equation is finding the surface area of the base which is a square. Since squares have four equal sides, its safe to say that you can use 6 * 6.

Hope that helped!
