Answer:

The surface area is equal to [tex]390\ in^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of the triangular pyramid is equal to the area of its four triangular faces

so

In this problem

[tex]SA=4[\frac{1}{2}(b)(h)][/tex]

we have

[tex]b=15\ in[/tex]

[tex]h=13\ in[/tex]

substitute the values

[tex]SA=4[\frac{1}{2}(15)(13)]=390\ in^{2}[/tex]
