What is rectangular prims?
a rectangular prisim is part of geometry, its shape is like a tissue box
How do you find the area of a regular pyramid?
For a regular pyramid, the surface area (SA) is the following: SA= Area of Base + 1/2 [Perimeter x Side Length] As you know, the area of the base is the flat part of the pyramid which points the vertical lines to one point: above the center of the base. You need to find the perimeter of the base first, and then find the side length via Pythagorean Theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2). Finally, plug them into the equation above, and you'll have your answer.
Explain how a pyramid and a cone are alike and different?

How many faces on a quadrilateral pyramid?
It has 5 faces. The "quadrilateral" part of the name describes the shape of the base of the pyramid. A pyramid has 1 face for every side of the base plus an extra one for the base. Thus a quadrilateral pyramid has a quadrilateral or 4 sided shape for the base and so has 4 + 1 = 5 faces.
What is the difference between the shape of a side view of a rectangular pyramid and a top-down view of a rectangular pyramid?
the top down view is the full (whole) thing. It's the biggest part of the shape.
How do you find the volume of a pyramid?
The volume of a pyramid is: Volume= 1/3 area of base (length * width) * height OR V= 1/3LWH * * * * * A pyramid can have a base that is any convex polygon - not just a rectangle. So the "length * width" part of the formula is not generally valid.
How does the width of the rectangle change if the length increases but the area remains 300 square feet?
The width reduces as the length increases. The changes shape of the curve is a part of a [rectangular] hyperbola.
