the answer is that, if you look at the base and count the edges that's how much more faces there would be on the pyramid. Example, if i have a hexagonal - based pyramid, a hexagon has 6 sides so the faces in the middle of the solid are six also so a hexagonal-based pyramid will have 12 faces. :)
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.
A 3d shape with 5 faces can be a square pyramid
tetrahedron aka triangular pyramid
A pyramid has the same number of faces as vertices. A triangular pyramid has 4. A rectangular pyramid has 5. Check into Euler's Theorems.
A pyramid!
A pyramid shape, by default, has a square base. It therefore has 5 faces.
Its shape, the number of faces edges and 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.
The number of faces determines the bases' shape.

Triangular Pyramid......... The faces are Triangular....
A pyramid has the same number of faces as vertices. A triangular pyramid has 4. A rectangular pyramid has 5. Check into Euler's Theorems.
A shape that has some triangular faces is a pyramid.
