surface area of a Right Triangular Pyramid formula
\(\large{ A_s = \frac{1}{2} \; \left(h_b\;a\right) + \frac{3}{2} \; \left(a\;h_s\right)  }\)
Symbol	English	Metric
\(\large{ A_s }\) = surface area	\(\large{ in^2 }\)	\(\large{ mm^2 }\)
\(\large{ a }\) = edge	\(\large{ in }\)	\(\large{ mm }\)
\(\large{ h_b }\) = height base	\(\large{ in }\)	\(\large{ mm }\)
\(\large{ h_s }\) = height side	\(\large{ in }\)	\(\large{ mm }\)
