triangles
There are 4 triangles that make up a pyramid. 4 on the sides and on the bottom a square or rectangle.
Many different types, but mostly equilateral triangles.
An octagonal pyramid has 9 vertices. The base of this shape is an octagon, which will give it 8 vertices when the triangles that form the sides are considered. Those triangles will lead up to the apex (top) of the pyramid, and that will be the 9th vertex.
540 degrees. you figure it out by seeing how many triangles you can make in the polygon (without crossing lines), and, because triangles equal 180 degrees, you multiply 180 times how many triangles you can make.
triangles
An octagon is made up from six triangles each containing 180 degrees.
The easiest method is to split the octagon up into triangles and sum the areas of the triangles.
27 triangles make up an Icosihenagon
3 triangles make up a hexagon.
If you cut a regular octagon into triangles, it would be 6 triangles. the measurement of all the angles in a triangle added up are 180 degress multiply 6x180=1080 the measurement of all the angles in a octagon added up are 1080 degress there are 8 angles in a octagon. divide 1080 by 8=135 135 degress in each angle in a regular octagon
They are both shapes and an octagon can be made up of six or more triangles. Other than that they are not similar. A triangle must have three sides. An octagon must have eight sides.

An octagonal pyramid has 9 vertices. The base of this shape is an octagon, which will give it 8 vertices when the triangles that form the sides are considered. Those triangles will lead up to the apex (top) of the pyramid, and that will be the 9th vertex.
The fewest number of triangles that make up a trapezoid are two isosceles triangles.
