✅ Thanks so much for watching! ✌ ✌ ✌
✅ Something to keep in mind... Adding the area of the base and the areas of all the lateral faces will work for any pyramid. The formula (SA = B + 1/2 x p x s) that is mentioned in the video only works for regular pyramids though (regular = all sides of the base are the same). For example, it works for square pyramids because all of the lateral faces are the same. For a counter example, this formula does not work for a rectangular pyramid because all of the lateral faces are not the same.

Our college math teacher is trying to push us to the class as fast as he can to get to the next semester and he doesn’t really go into detail about how to do any of these videos that you’ve made so you’re a literal lifesaver to my grades thank you! Please keep making these
