    The general formula for the total surface area of a regular pyramid is T. S. A. = 12pl+B where p represents the perimeter of the base, l the slant height and B the area of the base.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To find the surface area of a pyramid, start by multiplying the perimeter of the pyramid by its slant height. Then, divide that number by 2. Finally, add the number you get to the area of the pyramid's base to find the surface area.

    For example, If you are finding the surface area of a hexagonal pyramid, and you know that the length of one edge of the base is 4 cm, you would calculate {/displaystyle 4/times 6=24}4/times 6=24 to find the perimeter of the base, since a hexagon has six edges, or sides. Thus, the perimeter of the base is 24 cm, so your surface area formula will look like this: {/displaystyle SA={/frac {24/times h}{2}}+B}SA={/frac {24/times h}{2}}+B
