A rectangular pyramid has 5 bases. The base of a pyramid is the polygon upon which the pyramid stands, and in the case of a rectangular pyramid, there are four triangular faces that meet at a single rectangular base. So, the total number of bases in a rectangular pyramid is 1 (rectangular base) + 4 (triangular faces) = 5 bases.

they are the same because, they both have rectangular bases.
