Answer:
the surface area of the square pyramid is 576.66 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the surface area of square pyramid is given below:
A = a^2 + 2a × √a^2 ÷ √4 + √h^2
where
a = 12 cm
h = 17 cm
Now put the value of a and h in the above formula
= 12^2 + 2(12) × √12^2 ÷ √4 + √17^2
= 576.66 cm^2
hence, the surface area of the square pyramid is 576.66 cm^2
