Triangles, and also pyramids, have been popular designs in construction due to their steady bases. As an example of this, the Trans America building in San Francisco was built in a pyramid shape in the earthquake prone city.
Depends on the pyramid. A pyramid with a square (or quadrilateral) base would indeed have 8 edges, but a pyramid can have any other polygon as a base.Depends on the pyramid.

Pentagonal pyramid because a pentagon has five sides and then you have the base.
A square pyramid has 1 more vertex than a triangular pyramid. A square pyramid has 5 vertices, and a triangular pyramid has 4 vertices.
Square pyramid : 5 vertices. Triangular pyramid : 4 vertices.
thousands of slaves
skilled crafts people and unskilled slave labour
A person who worked on the construction of the pyramids.
No. Even with modern construction methods, it would be impossible to build a pyramid in one year. Most estimates claim that the construction of any individual pyramid would take between 20-25 years.
Good luck finding this answer!
Khufu's pyramid, also known as the Great Pyramid of Giza, was built in 2584 BCE. The construction was completed in 2540 BCE.
It is estimated that around 20,000 to 30,000 workers, not slaves, were employed to build the pyramid of Giza. These workers were likely skilled laborers, farmers, and craftsmen who were paid for their work. The common misconception of slaves being used to build the pyramids is largely inaccurate.
Yes. Pharaoh Khafre presided over the construction of his mausoleum, the Khafre Pyramid.

What's the question? A pyramid is a construction with triangular sides which meet in a point. The base can be any polygon shape.
Yes most likely you would have seen the Great Pyramid already built and the second pyramid of Khafre under construction.
The creation of the pyramids were from the orders of King Sneferu and they had two failed pyramid construction before the third was built perfectly which was called the Red pyramid (first true pyramid). The first pyramid that was built was the Medium and the second was called Bent pyramid.
