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.

It depends on what type of pyramid. Their is an square pyramid, a rectangular pyramid, a pentagonal pyramid, etc.

One side will be a square. It is the base. The lateral sides are triangles.
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.
A pyramid has a total of ( n + 1 ) plane surfaces, where ( n ) is the number of triangular faces. For example, a square pyramid has a square base (1 surface) and four triangular faces, resulting in a total of 5 plane surfaces. The specific number can vary depending on the shape of the base; for instance, a triangular pyramid (tetrahedron) has 4 surfaces in total.
A square-based pyramid has five flat surfaces: one square base and four triangular faces that converge at a single point (the apex) above the base. The square base forms the bottom of the pyramid, while the triangular faces make up the sides.
A pyramid has a combination of flat and curved surfaces, but it typically consists of flat surfaces only. Specifically, a pyramid has a base that is a polygon (flat surface) and triangular faces that connect the base to a single apex, all of which are flat. Therefore, a standard pyramid has no curved surfaces. The total number of surfaces depends on the number of sides of the base polygon; for example, a square pyramid has five flat surfaces (one base and four triangular faces).
