How do you find the volume of a circle based pyramid?
Wouldn't a circle-based pyramid look a lot like a cone ? If so, you could probably use the formula for the volume of a cone and get away with it.
What is like a pyramid but its base is a circle?
A cone ?
What sort of pyramid has a circle base?
A cone
How are a cone and a pyramid alike?
Start with a regular tetrahedron (triangular based pyramid). As you increase the number of sides in the base of the pyramid, the shape becomes more and more like a right cone. In the limit, the base tends to a polygon with an infinite number of sides - a circle, and the pyramid tends to a right cone.
How do you find the radius of a pyramid?
Radius is the name for half the diameter of a circle. A pyramid is not associated with a circle therefore it cannot have a radius. The closest shape would be a cone.

What is a pyramid with a circle base called?
Flying saucer. and a cone
Is a cone a sphere based pyramid?

Is a cone a pyramid or a prism?
A cone is a common pyramid-like figure where the base is a circle or other closed curve instead of a polygon. A cone has a curved lateral surface instead of several triangular faces, but in terms of volume, a cone and a pyramid are just alike.
How do you find the radius of a pyramid?
Radius is the name for half the diameter of a circle. A pyramid is not associated with a circle therefore it cannot have a radius. The closest shape would be a cone.
How does a cone differ from a pyramid?
a cone has a round surface and a circle bottom, but a pyramid has 5 squares. * * * * * A pyramid does not have 5 squares! It has a polygonal base with any number of sides. Attached to each of these sides, it has a triangle, and they meet at an apex.
