There are four vertices in a square-base pyramid. * * * * * Actually. a square based pyramid has four vertices at its base and a fifth vertex where the triangular sides of the pyramid meet. So, 5 vertices in all.
The answer is no. A square pyramid can not have all triangle faces because the base of this particular pyramid would be a square.
All except the base are always triangles; the shape of the base gives the name to the pyramid; eg a pentagonal pyramid has a pentagon as the base and five triangular faces; a triangular pyramid has three triangular faces and also has a triangle for the base.
All cross sections of a square pyramid that are parallel to the base are squares
a pyramid has for faces and a base so all in all 5 faces the four on the outside are triangular and the base is square :)
The surface area of a pyramid is the area of all the faces of the pyramid, for a pyramid with apex in the centre and a regular polygon as its base, (the bottom of a pyramid is the base, it is regular if all sides are the same length) the surface area is: B + 1/2(P * H) where B is the area of the base, P is the perimeter (area around) the base and H is the height of the pyramid.
All pyramids have only one base.
No. Usually the base is not.
The only pyramid with a square base that has equilateral faces, is one where the diagonal of the base is exactly twice as long as the pyramid is high.
It depends on what type of pyramid, if it is a triangular based pyramid then 6 but it all relies on the base realy
It is a pyramid that has a triangle as its base. The pyramids of Egypt are all built on square bases.
A pyramid (3D)! Some examples: - triangular base pyramid - square base pyramid - rectangular base pyramid - cone
