Angular mountain peak with three or more arêtes found in glaciated areas; for example, the Matterhorn in Switzerland. It is formed when three or four corries (steep-sided hollows) are eroded, back-to-back, around the sides of a mountain, leaving an isolated peak in the middle.

eight * * * * * A triangular pyramid has six edges: three edges that form the triangular base and then three more edges going up from each vertex of the base to the apex (peak) of the pyramid.
it is formed when 4 corries are formed round each side therefore making a pyramid shape of the mountain
Depending on how you use it, another word for it could be vertex, like in an isosceles triangle, or peak, if used in a pyramid.
Use the Pythagorean theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2 a = sqrt (c^2 - b^2) Where: a=the height (pyramid height from base to peak) b=the base length c = the hypotenuse (slant) length
