What is the total area, in square units, of the four triangular faces of a right, square-based pyramid that has base edges measuring six units and lateral edges measuring five units?

(PLease send help quick thank you so much)

The total area of the four triangles is 48 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The lateral area of the square pyramid is equal to the area of the four triangular faces

so

where

Find the height of the triangular faces

Note: The height of the four triangles is the same because is a right square pyramid

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

Find the lateral area

substitute the given values
