Base * Base = area of base
Squaroot((Base / 2) x (Base / 2)) + (Height x Height)) = H = one triangle side len
Triangle Area = Base/2 x H
Total area = AreaOfBase + (TriangleAria x 4)

find the area of one of the sides then multiply it by the number of sides, then find the area of the base (either top or bottom) and multiply it by 2 (one for top, one for bottom) then add the two results together.
