How are pyramids and cones alike and differant?
Pyramids and cones are both kind of similar but also very different. You can say that the cone has no vertex (something that may be confusing because of what a book says) but a cone really does not have any vertex because there are no line segments or faces that are only faces (the circle is both a base and a face) You can say they are similar because they both have only one base Hope this helped - Harry
A has cross sectional shapes that are similar but not congruent to one another?
Cones, pyramids, and spheres have.
True of False Two cones have equal heights If the base of one cone is a circle and the base of the other cone is a square the two cones cannot have equal volumes?
false!
What is the relationship between prisms and pyramids?
pyramids are prisms. * * * * * Pyramids are not prisms nor are prisms pyramids. A pyramid has one polygonal base. Each side of that polygon is connected to a triangle, whose third vertices meet at a point above the base of the pyramid. A prism has two congruent polygonal bases that are parallel to one another. They are joined together by rectangles.
What is the difference between a base and a face?
None, really. Except that when a solid has faces of two kinds and there are only one or two faces of a particular shape then the solid is conventionally viewed with that face at the bottom (and top) and the bottom face is called the base. Common examples are pyramids or prisms which may have bases that are triangular, quadrilateral, pentagon etc. Or cones and cylynders whose bases may be circles or ellipses.
Do cones and prisms only have one base?
Cones and pyramids have only one base, but prisms have multiple bases.
How are pyramids and cones different than prisms and cylinders?
Pyramids and cones have a pointed top (apex) while prisms and cylinders have flat tops. Pyramids and cones have a single base, while prisms have two parallel bases. Cones have a curved surface while pyramids have triangular faces.
How are pyramids and cones alike?
they all have a vertex, or a point, and one base. :-D
What is a figure with one base and a top called an apex?
Typical figures are cones and pyramids.
How many bases for triangular pyramid?
All pyramids have only one base.All pyramids have only one base.All pyramids have only one base.All pyramids have only one base.
How are cones and pyramids alike and how are they different?
Both cones and pyramids have one base and they all have a vertex, or they all come to a point. That is what makes them alike. What make them different is that a cone has one curved edge at its base, and a pyramid has 6 to 8 edges which is not curved

What are some special features of the Egyptian pyramids?
they are simple triangles and not circles or squares.... pyramids are nice cones.. just like other inverted cones in the world, only that it is hard to build one at present.
Cones and polyhedrons both have only one base?
