It is called the base.
A square based pyramid has 4 triangular faces which means it has a total of 5 faces
any face that is not a base is?
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 :)

The bottom, or base of a pyramid would count as a face is you were finding out surface area.

Lateral Face - In a prism, the faces that are not bases. In a pyramid, faces that intersect at the vertex.

No a hexagonal pyramid has a base of a octagon and six triangles. (:

Any face of a tetrahedron can be considered a base. A pyramid, in general, has one polygonal face (with n sides) and n triangular faces. In such a pyramid, the triangular faces would normally not be considered bases - only the n-gon would.
