The Prism has a larger surface area than the pyramid.

What is area?

Area is the amount of space occupied by a two dimensional shape or object.

Surface area of Prism = 2 * base area + 4(base length)(height)

Surface area of Prism = 2(6 * 6) + 4(6)(4) = 168 in²

Surface area of pyramid = (base area) + 2(base length)(slant height)

Surface area of pyramid = (6 * 6) + 2(6)(5) = 96 in²

The Prism has a larger surface area than the pyramid.
