If you glued together the congruent bases of two square pyramids how many faces would you have?

There would be 8 faces. Each square pyramid has 1 square face (its base) and 4 triangular faces. When you glue the squares together, you get a new polyhedron with 8 faces.

What shape has eight sides that are equilateral triangles?
A regular octahedron - two square based pyramids stuck together along their square bases.
What does not have two congruent parallel bases?
A square.
What is the difference between a square pyramid and a cone?
Main difference is that square pyramids have square bases, cones have circular bases. For this reason, they're calculated differently.
How do you determine the base of a prism?
Look at the prism. If all faces are rectangular (or square) then so are the bases. Otherwise they are the two congruent parallel faces that are not rectangular. Look at the prism.

What is the name of a 3D diamond called?
an octahedron: basically two square based pyramids with their bases stuck together.
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 geometric shape makes these structures pyramids?
Pyramids are constructed from triangular shapes and can have square or triangle bases
What is the relationship between prisms and pyramids?
pyramids are prisms. * * * * * Pyramids are not prisms nor are prisms pyramids. A pyramid has one polygonal base. Each side of that polygon is connected to a triangle, whose third vertices meet at a point above the base of the pyramid. A prism has two congruent polygonal bases that are parallel to one another. They are joined together by rectangles.
How are rectangular and square pyramids different?
they are different because there bases are different

What solid figure does not have 2 congruent bases?
Cones, pyramids, and spheres don't, and I'll bet I could name even more if I thought about it.
What are two congruent parallel bases?
When a base is congruent it is the same shape and size, and parallel is when they will never touch. Therefore, on a square the top and bottom are congruent parallel bases. Some other examples are: Cylinders, rectangular prisms, and of course parallelograms.
What is the 3d shape for a hexegon?
A hexahedron is two triangular pyramids with their bases glued together.
