The formula for the volume of a truncated square pyramid with height h, and top edge a cm and bottom edge b cm is V = 1/3*(a2 + ab + b2)*h.
A truncated pyramid has: faces = number_of_edges_round_polygon_of_base + 2 vertices = number_of_edges_round_polygon_of_base x 2 edges = number_of_edges_round_polygon_of_base x 3
To calculate the surface area of a truncated pyramid, you first take the surface area of each side. That would be the base time the straight height. If it is a 4 side pyramid with equivelant sides, multiply that answer by 4.
the egyptian pyramid put the body in mummy,but the mexican pyramid put the body in the water.
The sides of a pyramid are known in geometry as faces.

It is a pyramid with a flat base on top.
Not exactly. A frustum would be a pyramid with the apex cut off. A truncated pyramid would be a pyramid with all vertices cut off.
Truncated pyramid.
It can be.
it is a mastaba
A truncated pyramid has: faces = number_of_edges_round_polygon_of_base + 2 vertices = number_of_edges_round_polygon_of_base x 2 edges = number_of_edges_round_polygon_of_base x 3
It is the net of its solid shape. If the top of the pyramid is cut off parallel to the base, then it is a truncated pyramid, or a frustum.
Assuming that you mean pentagon, not pentagon, the answer is simply that a truncated pyramid has a flat top which can support weight easily whereas a pentagon pyramid would require a very fine balancing act.

A pyramid has a square base.
A heptahedron.There are 34 distinct heptahedra: some of these are:a hexagon based pyramid,a pentagon based pyramid with one of the basal vertices truncated,a cuboid with one of its vertices truncated.
