36 m²

1 answer

The total surface area of the square pyramid can be calculated by finding the area of the square base and adding the areas of the four triangles.

The area of the square base is (6m x 6m) = 36m².

Each triangle has a base of 6m and a height of 4m. The area of each triangle is (1/2)(6m)(4m) = 12m². Since there are 4 triangles, the total area of the triangles is 4 x 12m² = 48m².

Therefore, the total surface area of the pyramid is 36m² + 48m² = 84m².

The correct answer is 84 m².
