A regular pyramid has an equilateral triangle base, not just a regular polygon.
It has an apex above the centre of the base.

A regular pyramid has an equilateral triangular base
A pyramid is a generic term, used to describe a three dimensional shape with a polygonal base and triangular sides that meet at an apex above the base. The base can be a polygon with any number of sides and the number of faces, edges and vertices of a pyramid depend on this number of sides. If the base is an n-sided polygon, then the pyramid has 2n edges.

A regular pyramid is a right pyramid whose base is a regular polygon. There are only three regular pyramids: a regular tetrahedron, a regular square pyramid, and a regular pentagonal pyramid.
The distance from the vertex of a regular pyramid to the midpoint of an edge of the base can be found using the Pythagorean theorem. If the height of the pyramid is ( h ) and the distance from the center of the base to the midpoint of an edge is ( d ), then the distance ( D ) from the vertex to the midpoint of the edge is given by ( D = \sqrt{h^2 + d^2} ). This applies to regular pyramids where the base is a regular polygon. The specific values of ( h ) and ( d ) depend on the dimensions of the pyramid and its base.
An oblique pyramid is either one whose base is not a regular polygon or one whose apex is not vertically above the centre of its base.
Any polygon could be, as long as it's a regularone.
A polygon with n sides, and n triangles, where n ≥ 3. Most commonly, the polygon at the base is a triangle or a square. If the base polygon is regular and the pyramid is a right pyramid (ie apex above the centre of the basal polygon), the triangles will be isosceles.
A cylinder is a polygon that has circles as its base. A triangular pyramid is a polygon that has a triangle as its base.
