What describes all cross sections of a square pyramid where the intersecting plane is perpendicular cut to base?

A trapezium, except that when it goes through the apex, it becomes a triangle. If the pyramid is a right pyramid, then the cross sections will be isosceles.

Are the edges of a square pyramid parallel?

The base of a square pyramid is a square and its edges are parallel. The sides are not parallel since they intersect at the apex.

Does a pyramid always have parallel faces?

A pyramid never has parallel faces. Any two faces intersect.


A pyramid has cross sectional shapes taken parallel to its base that are what to one another?

The cross-sectional shapes taken parallel to the base of a pyramid are similar to one another. This similarity arises because these sections maintain the same proportions and angles as the base, regardless of their position along the height of the pyramid. As a result, each cross section is a scaled-down version of the base shape.


How many parallel edges does a triangular pyramid have?

None of the edges of a triangular pyramid is parallel to any of its other edges.


Does a pyramid have parallel faces?

no.


Does a pyramid have at least two congruent parallel bases?

Not true. They have only one base and several (3 or more) lateral triangular faces. A pyramid has a single vertex over a base - there are no parallel faces in any pyramid.
