A pyramid is a generic term. There are pyramids with triangular bases, square or rectangular or quadrilateral bases, pentagonal base and so on.

A pyramid whose base is a polygon with n sides has n+1 sides (which are the same thing as faces), and n+1 vertices.

A pyramid has a base that can have any number of sides, plus triangular faces that connect each vertex of the base to a single apex point. For example, a pyramid with a square base has five faces (1 square base and 4 triangular faces), while a pyramid with a triangular base has four faces (1 triangular base and 3 triangular faces). Thus, the total number of sides varies depending on the shape of the base.
