The angles of the square base are 90 degrees, just as you'd expect, but from there we have to "get funky" just a bit to understand the answer because it varies.
As we "flatten" the pyramid, the angles between the plane of the base and the sides approach zero degrees, and as we "stretch" the pyramid to infinity, the angles approach 90 degrees. The angles we are talking about have a range with limits on either end, but the angle, whatever it is, cannot be the limit itself. We say the angle is greater than zero or less than 90 degrees.
The angle of the vertex will vary as well, and it will depend on the angle between the base and the ascending edge. It will vary between 90 degrees (in the case of the "flattened" pyramid) and zero degrees (in the case of the "stretched" pyramid). That is as good an answer as we can come up with given the general nature of the question.

How do you find the base of a square pyramid?
The base of square pyramid is a square, as you may have guessed. If you measure one side of the square base, you'll have discovered the length of a side of the base. A side squared (a side times a side) will give you the area of the base of a square pyramid. If you have the area of the base, you can find the length of a side of the base by finding the square root of the area of the base. In the case of a square pyramid, if you are given the length of a side and either a vertex angle or the angle between the base and a side, you'll have an isosceles triangle to deal with. (There are four isosceles triangles that make up the faces of the square pyramid, as you probably figured out.) This involves a bit of trigonometry, and there are some other questions here that will help you figure that out.
Does a triangular pyramid or a rectangular pyramid have a square base?
Neither a triangular nor a rectangular pyramid has a square base. A square pyramid has a square base.
How many degrees in a square pyramid?
A square pyramid has a total of 360 degrees in its base, which is a square. Additionally, each of the four triangular faces contributes to the overall surface area but does not add to the total angle measurement of the pyramid itself. Therefore, when considering the base alone, there are 360 degrees in a square pyramid.
