Answer:

Total surface area = 27 km²

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a square based pyramid comprises:

  • 4 congruent triangles (sides)
  • 1 square (base)

Area of a triangle = 1/2 × base × height

                             = 1/2 × 3 × 3

                             = 4.5 km²

Area of a square = (side length)²

                            = 3²

                            = 9 km²

Total surface area = 4 triangles + square base

                              = (4 × 4.5) + 9

                              = 18 + 9

                              = 27 km²
