What is the total area of one face of the pyramid? what is the total surface area of the faces of the pyramid, not counting the bottom? ( hint: the bottom of the pyramid is a square.)

Pyramid=4 triangles and 1 square base
area of triangle=(1/2)bh

4 triangles
therefor
area of 4 triangles=4(1/2)bh=
area of 4 triangles=area of faces of pyramid
area of faces of pyramid=4/2bh
area of faces of pyramid=2bh

h=slant height

2bh is answer where h=slant height and b=base legnth

“exterior angles of triangles. an exterior (or external) angle is the angle between one side of a triangle and the extension of an adjacent side. try this drag the orange dots on any vertex to reshape the triangle.” look to get to the answer i explained what it means and other things i hope it you .

Hmm confusing don't understand
