Does a pyramid have two congruent parallel bases?

no


Does a pyramid have at least two congruent parallel bases?

Not true. They have only one base and several (3 or more) lateral triangular faces. A pyramid has a single vertex over a base - there are no parallel faces in any pyramid.


Does a pyramid have 2 congruent parallel bases?

No, a pyramid has 1 base, you are thinking of a cylinder.


Is a pyramid a three dimensional figure with two congruent parallel bases that are circles?

no


What is the difference between a triangular prism and a triangular pyramid?

A triangular prism has two congruent triangular bases in parallel planes and three rectangular faces joining them together. A triangular pyramid has four triangular faces, a triangular base and three triangular faces meeting at an apex above the base. Triangular prism: 6 vertices, 5 faces, 9 edges Triangular pyramid: 4 vertices, 4 faces, 6 edges


What ia the differences of prism and pyramid?

Well if you mean triangular pyramid and triangular prism then: A triangular pyramid is a geometric solid with a base that is a triangle and all other faces are triangles with a common vertex. A triangular prism is a geometric solid with two bases that are congruent (identical), parallel triangles and all other faces are parallelograms. It is referred to as a right triangular prism if the faces are rectangles.


What is a 3D figure that has two parallel and congruent triangular bases in the shape of polygons?

They could be pentahedra in the form of triangular prisms or octahedra in the form of triangular antiprisms.


What is the difference between a triangular prism versus a triangular pyramid?

A triangular pyramid has one base, a triangle, and 3 sides, also triangles, meeting at one point, the vertex, at the top. A triangular prism has two parallel bases which are triangles, but the sides are rectangles that connect the two triangular bases.


What polyhedron has two congruent parallel bases?

A prism has two congruent parallel bases.


Are the bases and faces the same on a pyramid?

Depending on the type of pyramid, it varies. Most pyramid types (including square, rectangle, octagonal, etc. pyramids) do not have congruent bases and faces, though some may have a few similar faces. Only one pyramid, the triangular pyramid, has a triangle for the base and all of the faces, which are congruent.


What solid has two parallel bases that are congruent?

Both a cylinder and a prism can have parallel and congruent bases.


It two congruent bases that are parallel what shape is it?

parallelogram, because if the two bases are congruent and parallel then the sides will also have to be parallel, so it is a parallelogram
