How to find the surface area of a 3D pyramid

👉 Learn how to find the volume and the surface area of a pyramid. A pyramid is a 3-dimensional object having a polygon as its base and triangular surfaces converging at a single point called its apex. A pyramid derives its name from the shape of its base, i.e. a pyramid with a triangular base is called a triangular pyramid while a pyramid with a square base is called square pyramid, etc.

The volume of a pyramid is given by one-third the area of its base multiplied by its height (the distance between its base and the apex). While the total surface area of a pyramid is given by the sum of the areas of all the plane shapes making up the pyramid.

@rtowell73 i completely understand, i am in the process of creating a website to have all of the organized, should be ready in a couple of weeks, you can always search my channel for what you are looking for

[brianmclogan]

you are very welcome, let me know how I can help you further

The problem I was solving noted that we had a regular prism with all of the sides of the prism equal to one another. Great question, do not take things for granted!

[brianmclogan]

noted! thank you for watching, and keep up the great suggestions

[brianmclogan]

@rtowell73 thank you for the kind words!

[kookiebobateabubblesjeon]

what if the base is a triangle too? would I just use the same kind of formula I used for the faces of the pyramid or do something else?

The moment you split up the pyramid into a net. I instantly understood, thanks! Totally going to ace my math test tomorrow.

[brianmclogan]

go get it! let me know how you do. Seriously

@rtowell73 unfortunately I am still in the process of making geometry videos i have some up there that are advanced but i am working through a book just like you

[tiscarocks]

That was sooo helpful, thanks, , , Got a test tomorrow :( butt I found this vid useful
