Four, one for the base triangle, and 3 attaching to the top.
A triangular pyramid has one apex. The apex of a pyramid is its pointed tip on top. A triangular pyramid has four faces and a triangle-shaped base.
Four - as a square has four sides, there are then four triangular sides (meeting at the top of the pyramid).
Three.
the difference is a triangular pyramid has a point at the top and a triangular prism doesn't and a triangular pyramid has a square at the bottom and tringular prism doesn't
A square pyramid has 5 vertices and 8 edges. A square pyramid has a square for a base and four triangular faces that connect at the top. The top is one vertex. The four corners of the square base are the other four vertices. The square base has four edges. The other four edges extend from the vertex at the top to the vertices of the square base. This pyramid also has 5 faces.
5. 4 on the bottom and 1 on top at the peak * * * * * So not true! A pyramid is a generic term used to describe a polyhedron with a polygonal base and a number of triangles rising from that base to meet at an apex. A pyramid whose base is a polygon with n-sides (or vertices) has n+1 faces, n+1 vertices and 2n edges, where n ≥ 3. So, a triangular pyramid, or tetrahedron, has 6 edges.
5 faces- 1 for each triangle and 1 for the square base8 edges- 4 for the square base and 4 for the edges between triangular face5 vertices- 4 for the square's corners and 1 at the top
43 at the base, 1 at the top
16 edgesThere are 8 edges around the base and 8 edges from each vertex of the base to the top of the pyramid giving a total of 16 edges.
In math terms, a pyramid could have a square base, triangular base or another shape. The Egyptian pyramids (and Aztec ones) had a square base. So they had 8 edges (for on the base and 4 rising to the top) and 5 faces (4 facing up and the base).
A triangular prism has nine edges, three edges that are parallel to each other on the top and bottom of the prism, and three surrounding edges. It also has five faces and six vertices.
