In a square pyramid, there are triangles as some of the sides. Only the base is a square, whereas in a cube, all faces are squares.
1 a cube has 6 faces and a square pyramid has 5
A lot of things. For example, a cube has 8 vertices, the square pyramid has 5. A cube also has more edges and faces than the pyramid. All the faces of the cube are squares, while the pyramid only has one square face. Also, all the angles in the cube are right angles, while the angles in a square pyramid (in the usual sense of a pyramid where the apex is directly above the center of the base) are acute. In any case, they are not all right angles.
The flat surfaces on a pyramid are called faces. A pyramid has one base and triangular faces that meet at a single point called the apex. On a cube or rectangular prism, the flat surfaces are called faces as well. But unlike a pyramid, a cube has six square faces, while a rectangular prism has two rectangular bases and four rectangular faces.
A cube, like a prism has two identical parallel faces which are joined by rectangular faces (a square being a special case of a rectangle). A pyramid, on the other hand, has a number of triangular faces meeting at an apex: a cube has no triangular faces.

eight faces and 1 base.

The differences between a cube and asquare pyramid is that - A vube has 6 faces and a square pyramid has 5 faces. - A cubehas 8 vertices and a square pyramid has 5 vertices. - A cube has 12 edges and asquare pyramid has 8edges. I hope this helped!

Cube: 12, square based pyramid: 8
A cube has 6 faces, but now the top face is covered and the bottom can't be seen leaving 4 visual faces. The square pyramid has a square bottom that is covering the top face of the cube and therefore, not visible. The rest of the faces are 4 triangular faces. So 4 triangle faces plus 4 cube faces = 8 faces. If one wants to include the bottom of the cube, that would be 9 faces.
Square is to cube, as triangle is to "triangular pyramid." Pyramid might refer to the common square pyramid, with a square base.
No, a square pyramid has a square as a base end the four edges end in the peak. The cube has 8 corners, the square pyramid has 5.

A pyramids is like a cube because its base is a square.
