A square pyramid's base is a square. You can tell by the name (for exp. a triangular pyramid's base is a triangle.) Good luck with whatever you need it for :)
It is called the base.

You did not give the height of the pyramid and 16 cm is not an area, but the area of the face would be one half the face height of the side of the pyramid times the length of the base side.

4 faces are triangles and 1 face is a square the square face is the base of the pyramid

The base of a square pyramid is the only face that is a square - all the others are triangular in shape. So you do not need any measurements to determine which is the base.
A square pyramid! The base of the pyramid is a square and it has four trianglular faces that meet at the vertex of the pyramid.pyramid
A square pyramid, or square-based pyramid, has 5 faces and 8 edges. One face forms the square base, and there are four triangular faces.

The only pyramid with a square base that has equilateral faces, is one where the diagonal of the base is exactly twice as long as the pyramid is high.
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.
