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 name of a polygon with 4 sides and vertices?
triangular pyramid
How is the number of vertices for a prism related to the name of the prism?
Divide the number of vertices by 3. Find the name of the polygon with that many sides. The prism has that polygon as a base. For example, a prism with 24 vertices. Divide by 3 so that is 8. An 8 sided polygon is an octagon. The name is an octagon-based prism.
What pyramid has 7 faces 12 edges and 7 vertices?
since the base is a hexagon my guess if this has a name would be: hexagonal pyramid
How many vertices does a 6 faced hexahedron have?
A hexahedron MUST have six faces since that is what the name means. It can have 5 vertices (triangular dipyramid), 6 vertices (pentagonal pyramid), 8 vertices (parallelepiped and similar)
How is the numbers of vertices for a prism related to the name of the prism?
Twice the name. A prism with an n-sided base will have 2n vertices.
How is the number of faces for a pyramid related to the name of the pyramid?
It's one more. A pyramid with an n-sided base will have n + 1 vertices, n + 1 faces, and 2n edges.
What determines the name of a prism or pyramid?
their bases and their vertices.
What is the name of a polygon with 4 sides and vertices?
triangular pyramid
What is the name of the shape that has 7 vertices and 12 edges?
A hexagonal pyramid.
What is the name for a 3D with 7 vertices's?
A hexagonal pyramid is one possibility. A pentagonal bi-pyramid is another. There are others.
What is the name of a pyramid with 5 faces?
It is a square based pyramid which has 5 faces, 8 edges and 5 vertices
How many vertice does a square pyramid have?
A square pyramid has 5 vertices:4 (coplanar) vertices form the square base which gives the shape its name, and the fifth at an apex (above the base).A square based pyramid has 5 vertices, 8 edges and 5 faces
How many vertices has an octahedron?
An octahedron is the name for a non-specific shape. It could, as described above, be a di-rectangular pyramid with 6 vertices. Or it could be a heptagonal pyramid, in which case it has 8 vertices. Or it could be a hexagonal prism, in which case it has 12 vertices. There are other octahedraons.

Any way you like as long as the names are all different!
