What is the number of vertices in a pyramid with a hexagonal base?
A hexagon is a six sided figure so, a hexagonal base has six triangular sides. Each triangle has three vertices, so such a pyramid has 18 vertices
How is the number of vertices for a pyramid related to the name of the pyramid?
Subtract 1 from the number of vertices. Find the name of the polygon with that many sides. The pyramid has that polygon as its base. So, for example, 7 vertices. Subtract one and that gives 6. A six sided polygon is a hexagon. So the shape is a hexagon based (or hexagonal) pyramid.
What is the number of vertices in a hexagonal prism?
It has 12 vertices
Which has more sides a shape with six vertices or a shape with seven vertices?
The number of vertices does not determine the number of faces. If the shape with 6 vertices was a quadrilateral based bipyramid, it would have 8 faces. A hexagonal based pyramid has 7 vertices and 7 faces. So more vertices does not necessarily imply more faces.
Does a hexagonal pyramid and a heptagonal pyramid have the same number of faces?
yes
How many vertices does an hexagonal pyramid have?
Add one to a hexagons number of vertices

How many corners are on a hexagonal pyramid?
To find the number of vertices on any pyramid, take the number of corners on the base and add 1 (for the top) A hexagonal based pyramid has 7 vertices (6 for the hexagon, 1 for the top) I suspect you might mean "hexagonal prism" though. In which case, for prisms, you double the number of corners in the 2D shape. A hexagonal prism has 12 vertices (6 for the hexagons at each end.)

Does a pyramid always have an odd number of vertices?
No. A pyramid can have any number of vertices from 4 upwards.
Does a triangular prism and pyramid have the same number of vertices?
No. A triangular prism has six vertices. A square pyramid has five vertices. A triangular pyramid has four vertices.
Does a hexagonal pyramid and a heptagonal pyramid have the same number of faces?
yes
How many vertices a frustum of a pyramid have?
Two times the number of vertices in the polygonal base of the pyramid.
What pyramid has 5 faces 9 edges and 6 vertices?
If the number of vertices is not the same as the number of faces, it cannot be a pyramid.
How many number of sides and of base does a hexagonal pyramid have?
A pyramid with an n-sided base will have n + 1 vertices, n + 1 faces, and 2n edges. 6 sides, 1 base = 7 faces Save
