Answer to Problem 1PSA
The area of each lateral face of pyramid is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
A pyramid has triangular dimensions as 13 and 10.
Formula used:
The below theorem is used:
Pythagoras theorem states that “In a right angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides”.
In right
Area of triangle:
b = base of triangle
h = height of triangle
Calculation:
Draw altitude perpendicular to base.
The altitude AD can be calculated by applying Pythagoras Theorem.
In right angle triangle ADC , we get
The altitude drawn perpendicular divides the triangle face into two right
Lateral face is triangle.
Area of lateral face
Area of lateral face=60
b.
To find: The lateral area of pyramid with triangular dimensions as 13 and 10.

The lateral area of pyramid is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
A pyramid has triangular dimensions as 13 and 10.
Formula used:
The below theorem is used:
Pythagoras theorem states that “In a right angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides”.
In right angle triangle,
Area of triangle:
b = base of triangle
h = height of triangle Lateral Area = Area of lateral face
Calculation:
Draw altitude perpendicular to base.
The altitude AD can be calculated by applying Pythagoras Theorem.
In right angle triangle ADC , we get
The altitude drawn perpendicular divides the triangle face into two right triangles of
Lateral face is triangle.
Area of lateral face
Area of lateral face = 60
Lateral Area = Area of lateral face
Lateral Area = 60
Lateral Area = 240

Answer to Problem 1PSA
The total area of pyramid is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
A pyramid has triangular dimensions as 13 and 10.
Formula used:
The below theorem is used:
Pythagoras theorem states that “In a right angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides”.
In right angle triangle,
Area of triangle:
b = base of triangle
h = height of triangle Area of square:
s = side of square Lateral Area = Area of lateral face
Total area of pyramid = Area of square base + Lateral Area
Calculation:
Draw altitude perpendicular to base.
The altitude AD can be calculated by applying Pythagoras Theorem.
In right angle triangle ADC , we get
The altitude drawn perpendicular divides the triangle face into two right triangles of
Lateral face is triangle.
Area of lateral face
Area of lateral face = 60
Lateral Area = Area of lateral face
Lateral Area = 60
Lateral Area = 240
Area of square base:
Total area of pyramid = Area of square base + Lateral Area
Total area of pyramid = 100 + 240
Total area of pyramid = 340
