Answer:
The total surface area of triangular pyramid is 172 cm squared
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangular pyramid:
Given that, the area of the base is 43 cm squared. Lateral faces with bases of 10 cm and heights 8.6 cm.
The 3 sides of the triangular pyramid is triangle in shape.
The area of triangle is [tex]\frac12 \times base \times height[/tex].
The lateral surface area of the triangular pyramid is
[tex]=3(\frac12 \times base \times height)[/tex]
[tex]=3(\frac12\times 10\times8.6)[/tex] cm squared
=129 cm squared
The total surface area of triangular pyramid is
=Area of the base + lateral surface area
=(43+129) cm squared
=172 cm squared
