Does a pyramid have eight edges?
Depends on the pyramid. A pyramid with a square (or quadrilateral) base would indeed have 8 edges, but a pyramid can have any other polygon as a base.Depends on the pyramid.

What shape is a pyramid base?
square rectangular It can be any polygon shape, depending on how many sides the pyramid has. A four sided pyramid would have a quadrilateral (like a square or a rectangle) base, for instance.
What two dimensional shapes make up the net afor a pyramid?
A polygon with n sides, and n triangles, where n ≥ 3. Most commonly, the polygon at the base is a triangle or a square. If the base polygon is regular and the pyramid is a right pyramid (ie apex above the centre of the basal polygon), the triangles will be isosceles.
Can a pyramid have different shaped bases?
Pyramids are known with triangular and square bases. In theory, you could build a pyramid using any regular polygon as a base.
Does a pyramid have a square base?
It can, but it doesn't have to. The base can be any polygon, as long as the sides are triangles that come to a point at the top.

What is a solid figure with a polygon and three or more faces that are triangles?
a rectangular pyramid and a square pyramid
Real life examples of a square pyramid?
A square pyramid is a polygon that has a square base and four triangular sides. A real life example is the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt.
Which of these is a polygon a cone b circle c square or d pyramid?
The answer to this question is a square. Hope I helped.
What is a base pyramid?
square rectangular It can be any polygon shape, depending on how many sides the pyramid has. A four sided pyramid would have a quadrilateral (like a square or a rectangle) base, for instance.

What is the definition of a regular pyramid?
A regular pyramid is a right pyramid whose base is a regular polygon. There are only three regular pyramids: a regular tetrahedron, a regular square pyramid, and a regular pentagonal pyramid.
What is the surface area of a regular pyramid with sides of 13?
It is not possible to answer the question without knowing if the pyramid is a triangle based, square based or other polygon based pyramid.
How many flat face of pyramid?
A pyramid can have 4 or more faces. A pyramid, with a n-sided polygon as base will have n+1 faces. The polygon with the least number of sides is a triangle and a triangular pyramid (tetrahedron) has 4 faces. A square based pyramid has 5 faces, and so on.
Does the base of a pyramid have to be a square?
The base of a pyramid need not be a square. According to the definition of a pyramid, it must only contain triangular sides that meet at a single point. This means the base of a pyramid to virtually be any type of polygon shape, including even a triangle, square, octagon, etc.
Can a pyramid have different shaped bases?
Pyramids are known with triangular and square bases. In theory, you could build a pyramid using any regular polygon as a base.
