A square base, and four triangular shaped sides equals five flat surfaces.
A square-based pyramid has five flat surfaces: one square base and four triangular faces that converge at the apex. The base is the square, while each of the four sides of the square forms a triangular face with the apex.
Lateral faces are the number of faces excluding the base. Since the square is the base, the other 4 sides will each be touching a lateral face to form a square pyramid (or it wont be a pyramid). So, there are 4.

One side will be a square. It is the base. The lateral sides are triangles.

Each lateral face is perpendicular to its lateral neighbours so that makes 4 pairs. In addition, opposite lateral faces may be perpendicular, making 6 pairs in all.
