The formula used to calculate surface area for the classic square pyramid is: SA = [2 * b * h] + b^2. 1  SA and l represent the same values as before. 2  The abbreviation b represents the base length of the pyramid. 3  Note that [2 * b * h] is used to calculate the lateral area of the square pyramid.
1 The surface area is calculated by adding together the lateral area of the pyramid,si [(1/2) * p * h] , to the area of the base, B. 2  The lateral area can also be viewed as the sum of all lateral surfaces on the pyramid. 3  In other words, it is the sum of all the triangular sides.
