How to calculate the surface area of a pyramid in C

Answer 1

#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>

double surfaceAreaOfPyramid(double sideLength, double height) {
    double surfaceArea = (sideLength * sideLength) + 2 * 
                         (sideLength * sqrt(pow(height, 2) + 
                          pow((sideLength / 2), 2)));
    return surfaceArea;
}

int main() {
    double sideLength = 8.0;
    double height = 14.0;
    
    printf("%lf", surfaceAreaOfPyramid(sideLength, height));
}
