Answer:
1. 40.00 sq units
2. 37.5 sq units
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Given slant height as 3 and the square base side as 4,
-The surface area of a right squared pyramid is calculated by summing the areas of the 4 triangles and the square base:
[tex]Area=Area \ Triangles+Base \ Area\\\\=4(\frac{1}{2}bh)+s^2\\\\=4(0.5\times 4\times 3)+4^2\\\\=24+16\\\\=40[/tex]
Hence, the area of the square pyramid is 40.00 sq units
2. The surface area of a cube is equivalent to 6 times the side of one face.
-Given the dimension of the sides as 2.5, surface area is obtained as:
[tex]A=6s^2\\\\=6(2.5\times2.5)\\\\=37.5[/tex]
Hence, the surface area of the cube is 37.5 sq units
