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.
It is a rectangular based pyramid
A rectangular pyramid has a rectangular base and four triangular faces that meet at a single point called the apex. A square pyramid, on the other hand, has a square base and four triangular faces that meet at a single point. The key difference is in the shape of the base - rectangular pyramid has a rectangular base, while a square pyramid has a square base.
You find the area of the base and then find the area of one triangle. Multiply that one triangle by 4 and then add the base. The above is correct for a triangular pyramid NOT a triangilar prism. A triangular prism has two triangular ends and three rectangular faces. The rectangular faces need no be the same shape, but if they are, So Area = 2*area of triangular ends + 3*area of rectangular faces If not, you'll just have to calculate each area separately and add them.

The rectangular pyramid - it has a square base, so has four vertices rather than the three of a triangular one.

a triangular prism is different from a rectangular prism because: their names are different a triangular prism has a triangle for its' base a rectangular prism has a rectangle base a triangular prism has less sides than a rectangular prism a rectangular prism has more sides than a triangular prism
A triangular prism. Triangular prisms are polyhedrons made of a triangular base, a translated copy, and 3 faces that join corresponding sides. The volume of the prism is the product of the area of the base and the distance between the two bases.
A prism can have a triangular cross-section with a rectangular base
A triangular prism.
pentagonal pyramid
A 3D shape with one base and three faces can only have triangular faces.
No. The 'rectangular' or 'triangular' refer to the shape of the base of the prism. These are different.
