Calculating the Area of a Farmhouse Attic Floor

In this mathematical problem, we are tasked with finding the area of the attic floor of a farmhouse depicted as a pyramid-shaped roof. The model provided includes the measurements necessary for our calculations, such as the attic floor being a square and all edges of the pyramid having a length of 12m. By applying geometric principles and formulas, we can determine the area of the attic floor accurately.

Next to it is a student s mathematical model of the farmhouse roof with measurements added. What have we learned? What have we learned? The attic floor, ABCD in the model, is a square. The beams that support the roof are the edges of a block (rectangular prism) EFGHKLMN. E is the middle of AT, F is the middle of BT, G is the middle of CT and H is the middle of DT. All the edges of the pyramid in the model have length 12m. QUESTION 1.1 Calculate the area of the attic floor ABCD.
