A square pyramid has base area 64 square centimeters. The surface area of this pyramid is 224 square centimeters. Find the height (h) to the nearest tenth of a centimeter. Pyramid height=cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The side of the square base is:

The formula for the surface area of the pyramid is:

The height is cleared in the previous expression:

logv3(x+2)=1

rewrite in exponential form:

logb(x) = y is equal to b^y =x

b = 3, y = 1

now solve for x:

3^1 = x+2)

x = 3-2

x = 1

see the picture for the graph.
