In the earring design described above, there are 4 equilateral triangles. The surface area is calculated by solving for the area of a single triangle and multiplying the answer by 4. The area of an equilateral triangle is calculated by the equation,
                                   A = ((√3)/4)s²
Substituting 14 to s and multiplying the answer by 4
                                 SA = √3 x (14 mm)² = 339.48 mm²
Thus, the surface area of the earring is approximately 339.48 mm².
