Calculate the surface area of each pyramid with the following values. (P = perimeter, b = one side of the base, s=side, h=height). Number of sides is given in each problem. The first two have hints to let you know what the shape of the base is…..



1. P = 12 ft, s = 4 ft, b = 4 ft, h=2 ft, 3 sides (base is a triangle)

2. b = 4 in, P = 16 in, s = 12, 4 sides (base is a square)

3. P = 48 m, b = 12 m, s=12, 4 sides

4. P = 45 yds, b = 15 yds, s=15, h=12, 3 sides

5. b = 6 ft, P = 24 ft, s=6, 4 sides

6. P = 15 ft, b = 5 ft, s=5 ft, h= 4, 3 sides

7. b = 4 in, P = 16 in, s=11, 4 sides

8. P = 40 m, b = 10 m, s=10, 4 sides

9. P = 45 yds, b = 15 yds, s=10, h=8, 3 sides

10. b = 16 ft, P = 64 ft, s=8, 4 sides

11. b = 5 ft, P = 20 ft, s=7, 4 sides

12. P = 45 ft, b = 15 ft, s=10, h=8, 3 sides

13. b = 13 in, P = 52 in, s=11, 4 sides

14. P = 28 m, b = 7 m, s=8, 4 sides

15. P = 27 yds, b = 9 yds, s=30, h=25, 3 sides
