Alternative Text

A. 113.4 ft2
B. 140.4 ft2
C. 226.8 ft2
D. 631.8 ft2

Step-by-step explanation:

If all faces are equilateral, and they are all congruent, that means the surface area of the pyramid is formed by 4 equal triangles, including the base.

We just need to find the area of one triangle and then multiply it by 4.

According to the image, the height of a triangle face is , and its base is . So, the area is

Then, the total surface area of the pyramid is

Therefore, the right answer is B. 140.4 square feet.
