Can a square pyramid have all triangle faces?
The answer is no. A square pyramid can not have all triangle faces because the base of this particular pyramid would be a square.
What two cross sections are possible when slicing a square pyramid vertically?
A trapezium or a triangle. If the pyramid is a right pyramid then they would both be isosceles.
What shape has 1 square face and 3 triangular ones?
One side of a square would be untouched with only 3 triangle faces attached to it. To make an entire closed shape, it would need another part or some 3 dimensional bending would need to take place. A pyramid has 1 square face and 4 triangle faces. A pyramid could also have 4 triangle faces where one triangle substitutes the square face.
What would the cross section of a square pyramid be?
Depending on the inclination of the plane used for the cross-section, it could be a square, rectangle, trapezium, triangle.
What is the number of edges of a pyramid?
A "pyramid" is a non-specific term refering to a 3-d shape consisting of a base which is a polygon with n sides, and n triangular faces meeting at an apex. Such a pyramid would have 2n edges. Thus, a triangular pyramid (tetrahedron) has 6 edges; a square based pyramid has 8, etc.
Can a square pyramid have all triangle faces?
The answer is no. A square pyramid can not have all triangle faces because the base of this particular pyramid would be a square.
Is a 3D triangle a square based pyramid?
No. A 3D triangle would be a triangular based pyramid.
What is a tetrahedron shape?
A pyramid with a triangle as base is considered as a tetrahedron. It is a three dimensional polyhedron with 4 equilateral triangles as its sides. If one would look at the word tetrahedron, it literally means "with four planes".
What solid figure has 4 equal sides the faces are triangle?
a pyramid, in the sense that most people think of has a square base, with 4 triangle 'sides', which would be 5 faces. A regular tetrahedron has 4 equilateral triangles as faces.
How many flat face of pyramid?
A pyramid can have 4 or more faces. A pyramid, with a n-sided polygon as base will have n+1 faces. The polygon with the least number of sides is a triangle and a triangular pyramid (tetrahedron) has 4 faces. A square based pyramid has 5 faces, and so on.
What is three sided pyramid called?
A triangular pyramid A triangular pyramid has four sides - each of which is a triangle. There cannot be a three sided pyramid. If you mean a 3 sided Pyramid with its base being the forth side it would be a Quadrangle. A four-sided triangular solid is also called a tetrahedron, and two interlaced are called a Star Tetrahedron.
What two cross sections are possible when slicing a square pyramid vertically?
A trapezium or a triangle. If the pyramid is a right pyramid then they would both be isosceles.
What is an example of a tetrahedron?
A tetrahedron is a pyramid with a triangular base. An example would be this kite: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrahedral_kite
What shape has 4 triangular face?
the actual answer would be a geometrical triangular pyramid * * * * * which is a tetrahedron.
What shape has 1 square face and 3 triangular ones?
One side of a square would be untouched with only 3 triangle faces attached to it. To make an entire closed shape, it would need another part or some 3 dimensional bending would need to take place. A pyramid has 1 square face and 4 triangle faces. A pyramid could also have 4 triangle faces where one triangle substitutes the square face.
3-d with 4 triangular faces?
-1
What solid figure can you make with 4 congruent triangles?
The only thing I can come up with would be a tetrahedron. You could make a pyramid with a square (open) base, I guess.
