Suppose the top face of the pyramid is ABCD with the square EFGH directly below it.
Suppose AC and BD meet at P, the apex of the pyramid.
Make a cut with a plane through P which is parallel to AB and goes through EF.
Make a cut with a plane through P which is parallel to BC and goes through FG.
Make a cut with a plane through P which is parallel to CD and goes through GH.
Make a cut with a plane through P which is parallel to DA and goes through HE.
The result will be the square-based pyramid PEFGH.

What shapes are made to make a square pyramid?
A pyramid has a triangle for each side of the base, thus for a square pyramid you'll need one square (for the base) and 4 triangles.
What are the special features of a square based pyramid?
It has a four sided square base and four other triangular sides reaching up to an apex. It is a pentahedron. If the four triangles are equilateral, it is known as a Johnson solid, and six of the pyramids will fit together to make an exact cube. If the four triangles are not equilateral, then they are isosceles.
What solid figure can you make with a square and 4 congruent triangles?
You can make square pyramid.
What are the five faces that make up a square pyramid?
No such thing as a 'square pyramid'. A pyramid has a 'square base'. This is one of the faces. The other four faces are four triangles. A solid object with a triangular base and three triangular sides is NOT a pyramid, but a TETRAHEDRON. It has FOUR(4) faces. It is NOT a pyramid. The solid object named a 'pyramid' ALWAYS has a square base, but there is no such object as a 'square pyramid'.
How do you make a cube?
To make a cube, start by drawing a square on a piece of paper for the base. Then, draw three vertical lines from each corner of the square, the same height. Connect the tops of these vertical lines with another square, forming the top of the cube. Finally, erase any overlapping lines to clarify the shape, and you have your cube.
What make a cube and a square base pyramid the same?
the base is both squares
How many faces square pyramid have?
Five. Four triangles and one square make up a square pyramid.
How many more faces does a cube have than a triangular pyramid?
A cube has 6 faces and a triangular pyramid has 5 faces. So a cube has 1 more face than a triangular prism. But a triangular pyramid has four faces. You make the call. That is correct: A triangular prism has five faces, and a cube has six faces, but a triangular pyramid has four faces.
What were the materials used to make a pyramid?
limestone and granite were the main materials used they also used special tools to carve
