No, it has five plus the bottom :D * * * * * The previous answer is incorrect: a pyramid with 5 faces plus the bottom would be a pentagon based pyramid! A triangular based pyramid, or tetrahedron, DOES have 4 triangular faces.
If the base of the pyramid is a triangle then all its faces would be triangular in shape.
I would think so, why not
A triangular based pyramid would fit the given description
depends on the dimensions of the 4 sides
6 straws are needed
A triangular based pyramid would have 4 corners; three for the triangular base and one for the peak. A pyramid has twice as many edges as sides in its base; thus a triangular pyramid has 2 × 3 = 6 edges. A triangular based pyramid is called a tetrahedron.

No. A 3D triangle would be a triangular based pyramid.
To create a triangular prism using straws, you would need a minimum of 6 straws. This is because a triangular prism has two triangular faces and three rectangular faces. Each triangular face would require 3 straws, and each rectangular face would require 2 straws. Therefore, the total number of straws needed would be 2 (for the triangular faces) + 3 (for the rectangular faces) = 6 straws.
I would think so, why not
9 straws because it has 9 edges, 6 vertices and 5 faces

Pyramid, but to be exact it would be a Triangular Pyramid ;) * * * * * To be exact ... but WRONG! A triangular pyramid has 4 faces and 4 vertices! A shape with 5 faces and vertices is a quadrilateral based pyramid - of which a special case would be a square based pyramid.
A triangular based pyramid would seem to fit the given description
