                    Question # 1

Answer:

The surface area of the square pyramid is 44.84.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the perpendicular height = 3

square base side = 4

Using the formula to compute the surface area of the square pyramid:

[tex]A=a^2+2a\sqrt{\frac{a^2}{4}+h^2}[/tex]

Here:

a = Base Edge = 4

h = height = 3

[tex]A=4^2+2\left(4\right)\sqrt{\frac{4^2}{4}+3^2}[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(a\right)=a[/tex]

[tex]A=4^2+2\cdot \:4\sqrt{\frac{4^2}{4}+3^2}[/tex]

[tex]A=4^2+8\sqrt{13}[/tex]         ∵  [tex]2\cdot \:4\sqrt{\frac{4^2}{4}+3^2}=8\sqrt{13}[/tex]

[tex]A=16+8\sqrt{13}[/tex]

[tex]A=44.84[/tex]

Therefore, the surface area of the square pyramid is 44.84.

                       Question # 2

Answer:

The surface area of a cube is 37.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the the length of one of the sides = s = 2.5

To find the surface area of a cube, using the formula

[tex]A=\:6s^2[/tex]

[tex]A=\:6\left(2.5\right)^2[/tex]

[tex]A=6\cdot \:6.25[/tex]          ∵ [tex]2.5^2=6.25[/tex]

[tex]A=37.5[/tex]

Therefore, the surface area of a cube is 37.5
