No, a square pyramid is not a polygon; it is a three-dimensional geometric figure. A polygon is a flat, two-dimensional shape with straight sides, such as a triangle or a square. In contrast, a square pyramid has a square base and four triangular faces that converge at a point above the base, giving it volume and depth.

Does a pyramid have eight edges?
Depends on the pyramid. A pyramid with a square (or quadrilateral) base would indeed have 8 edges, but a pyramid can have any other polygon as a base.Depends on the pyramid.

What shape is a pyramid base?
square rectangular It can be any polygon shape, depending on how many sides the pyramid has. A four sided pyramid would have a quadrilateral (like a square or a rectangle) base, for instance.
What is a polyhedron with a polygon base and triangular sides that allmeet at a common vertex?
A polyhedron with a polygon base and triangular sides that all meet at a common vertex is known as a pyramid. The base can be any polygon, such as a triangle, square, or pentagon, and the triangular sides are called lateral faces. The vertex where all the triangular faces converge is referred to as the apex of the pyramid. Each type of pyramid is named based on the shape of its base, such as a triangular pyramid or a square pyramid.
What two dimensional shapes make up the net afor a pyramid?
A polygon with n sides, and n triangles, where n ≥ 3. Most commonly, the polygon at the base is a triangle or a square. If the base polygon is regular and the pyramid is a right pyramid (ie apex above the centre of the basal polygon), the triangles will be isosceles.
What is a polyhedron with a polygon base and and triangular sides that all meet at a common vertex?
A polyhedron with a polygon base and triangular sides that all meet at a common vertex is called a pyramid. The base can be any polygon (such as a triangle, square, or pentagon), and the triangular faces connect each edge of the base to the apex or common vertex at the top. Pyramids are named based on the shape of their base; for example, a pyramid with a square base is called a square pyramid.

What is a solid figure with a polygon and three or more faces that are triangles?
a rectangular pyramid and a square pyramid
Which of these is a polygon a cone b circle c square or d pyramid?
The answer to this question is a square. Hope I helped.
What is a base pyramid?
square rectangular It can be any polygon shape, depending on how many sides the pyramid has. A four sided pyramid would have a quadrilateral (like a square or a rectangle) base, for instance.

What is the definition of a regular pyramid?
A regular pyramid is a right pyramid whose base is a regular polygon. There are only three regular pyramids: a regular tetrahedron, a regular square pyramid, and a regular pentagonal pyramid.
What is the surface area of a regular pyramid with sides of 13?
It is not possible to answer the question without knowing if the pyramid is a triangle based, square based or other polygon based pyramid.
Real life examples of a square pyramid?
No such thing as a 'Square' Pyramid. However, the Pyramids at Giza in Egypt have a square base, and four triangular sides that meet at a point. This is the classic form of a pyramid. NB A Triangular based pyramid is named a 'Tetrahedron', NOT a pyramid.
How many flat face of pyramid?
A pyramid can have 4 or more faces. A pyramid, with a n-sided polygon as base will have n+1 faces. The polygon with the least number of sides is a triangle and a triangular pyramid (tetrahedron) has 4 faces. A square based pyramid has 5 faces, and so on.
Does the base of a pyramid have to be a square?
The base of a pyramid need not be a square. According to the definition of a pyramid, it must only contain triangular sides that meet at a single point. This means the base of a pyramid to virtually be any type of polygon shape, including even a triangle, square, octagon, etc.
