It depends on how you cut it. It might be a frustrum, it might be a (somewhat differently shaped) pyramid, or it might be a wedge.

What is a pyramid cut in half?

A pyramid cut in half refers to a geometric shape resulting from slicing a pyramid through its apex and base, creating two identical halves. Each half retains the triangular faces of the original pyramid but is now a triangular prism with a base that mirrors the base of the pyramid. This cut can help visualize the internal structure of the pyramid and is often used in mathematical discussions or architectural designs.
