The lateral faces are congruent triangles. The base (shaded) is a square.

(All lengths are in feet.)

Answer:

To find the area of the base of the pyramid, we need to know the dimensions of the square base. Let's denote the length of one side of the square base as \( s \) (in feet).

The area \( A \) of a square is given by the formula:

\[ A = s^2 \]

Since the base of the pyramid is a square, we can use this formula to find its area.

So, the area of the base of the pyramid is \( s^2 \).
