What is the surface area of the regular pyramid below? a. 952 units^ b. 864 units^ c. 856 units^ d. 756 units^

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of the regular pyramid is the sum of the area of the 4 triangular faces and the area of the square base.

The area of the triangular faces is

The area of the square base

The surface area of the regular polygon is therefore;

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
