It means that it has a rectangular base rather than a square 1 :)
Yes. They are rectangular pyramids. They are square, but a square is a rectangle, by definition.
The base is different. A rect. pyramid has a rectangle as a base. Because the sides are different length for a rectangle, the triangles will not all be congruent (equal). A square pyramid has a square as the base. All sides of the square are the same length, so all the triangular sides of the pyramid will be congruent.
A rectangle and a square are different shapes. A rectangle cannot be a square.
A rectangle is different from a square because a square is equal on all sides and a rectangle is not.
it is possible to draw a square that is a rectangle?
A square is a special case of a rectangle.
a rectangle has longer sides then the square then the other
A square has four sides of equal length. A rectangle has lengths that are different from the widths.
A square is always a rectangle, but a rectangle is not always a square. A square is a special rectangle that has all 4 sides the same length.
they are different because there bases are different
How is a square different from a rectangle?In a square, all 4 sides are of equal measure. In a rectangle that is not a square, the two pairs of opposite sides will be of unequal length. Note that a square is a special case of a rectangle, so care should be given in considering the difference.a square has four lines of symmetry and a rectangle has two.
A pyramid is named after the base of the pyramid.As not all rectangles are squares, only those rectangles which are (also) squares would make a rectangular pyramid a square pyramid.A rectangle is only a square if it is regular, ie all sides are the same length.So a rectangle 2 x 3 is not a square, and so a pyramid with this base would be a rectangular pyramid.However, a 4 x 4 rectangle is a square, and a pyramid with this base would be a square pyramid.
