What is the area of each triangular base of the prism?

Each base: 12 ft^2
Surface Area: 48 ft^2
Assuming it is a triangular prisim made of equilateral triangles, I would assume the formula would be 4 times the area of one triangular base, following the formula:
[tex]a = \frac{1}{2} bh \\ a = \frac{1}{2} (6)(4) \\ a = 12 \\ 4 \times 12 = 48[/tex]
