The pyramids in Egypt are designed with a square bottom and triangular sides that come together to form... well... pyramids. There are many different styles of pyramids, as we have discovered through observation of each individual monument. The reasons for these changes are still unclear, but we generally have a good idea of why they are shaped the way they are base off of simple observation. For example, the "bent" pyramid is likely the way it is because its base was just too big for the design.
