Yes.
Lateral faces are the number of faces excluding the base. Since the square is the base, the other 4 sides will each be touching a lateral face to form a square pyramid (or it wont be a pyramid). So, there are 4.

A regular pyramid is a right pyramid whose base is a regular polygon. There are only three regular pyramids: a regular tetrahedron, a regular square pyramid, and a regular pentagonal pyramid.
One side will be a square. It is the base. The lateral sides are triangles.
I doubt it because no matter how big the base is, if you laid the triangles in to the position of the base (ex 4 triangles to a square base) they would have a larger area than the base shape
The volume of a regular pyramid with a square base of 8cm and a slant height of 5 cm is: 64 cm3
The base of a square pyramid is a square. The pyramid has 4 faces making the base have four edges. SQUARE PYRAMID
72 cm square.
To find the lateral height of a square pyramid, first identify the apex (top point) of the pyramid and the midpoint of one of its base sides. The lateral height is the length of the segment connecting the apex to this midpoint. You can use the Pythagorean theorem, where the lateral height forms the hypotenuse of a right triangle with the height of the pyramid and half the base length as the two other sides. Thus, the formula is ( l = \sqrt{h^2 + \left(\frac{b}{2}\right)^2} ), where ( l ) is the lateral height, ( h ) is the height, and ( b ) is the length of a base side.
