To find the surface area, use this square pyramid surface area formula: Square Pyramid Surface Area = 2 x B x S + B 2 B = Width of the Square Base S = Slant length of one of the triangular faces and is calculated from the height and base width by using the equation: S= The square root of [(.5B) 2 + Height 2] .

The surface area of a square pyramid is:  s² + 2sl

Where, s = length of side of base.              

l = slant height.                                              

What is a square pyramid?

"It is a three-dimensional geometric shape that has a square base and four triangular sides that are joined at a vertex."

According to the given question,

The surface area of a pyramid is a measure of the total area that is occupied by all its faces.

Surface area of square pyramid = Area of base + Area of four triangles Let a side of base be s,

Area of base = s²

Let the slant height be l,

Area of one triangle =1/2 × s × l

Area of four triangles  = 4 × 1/2 ×s × l                                      

                                     = 2sl

Total surface area of square pyramid = s² + 2sl

Hence,  we can conclude that area of a square pyramid will be s² + 2sl
