YES.........i think...maybe?
One difference is square pyramids have 4 triangular faces while rectangular prisms have none!
All the large pyramids in Egypt, Mexico, etc are all rectangular pyramids. All have a square or rectangular base and four triangular sides meeting at a point. ■
Pyramids only have square bases.Triangular prisms have triangle bases.Pyramids have triangle "faces".Triangular prisms have rectangular "faces".
no
no
Yes.
Neither a triangular nor a rectangular pyramid has a square base. A square pyramid has a square base.
Triangular prism - 6 Rectangular prism - 8 Rectangular pyramid - 5 Square pyramid - 5 Answer: Rectangular prism
Yes. They are rectangular pyramids. They are square, but a square is a rectangle, by definition.
It means that it has a rectangular base rather than a square 1 :)
The two main types of pyramids are square pyramids and triangular pyramids. A square pyramid has a square base and four triangular faces that converge at a single apex, while a triangular pyramid, also known as a tetrahedron, has a triangular base and three triangular faces that meet at a point. Each type has distinct geometric properties and applications in various fields, including mathematics and architecture.
The base is different. A rect. pyramid has a rectangle as a base. Because the sides are different length for a rectangle, the triangles will not all be congruent (equal). A square pyramid has a square as the base. All sides of the square are the same length, so all the triangular sides of the pyramid will be congruent.
