It depends upon the pyramid:

if it is a right rectangular pyramid it will have one axis of rotational symmetry which runs from the apex to the centre of the base and a rotational symmetry of 2.

If it is not a right rectangular pyramid then there is no axis of rotation which will permit the pyramid to fit on itself before a complete rotation of 360°

What is the relation between order of rotation and number of axes of symmetry of a geometrical figure?

The order of rotation of a geometrical figure refers to the number of times it can be rotated to look the same within a full 360-degree rotation. The number of axes of symmetry is the number of lines that can be drawn through the figure such that each side is a mirror image of the other. Generally, figures with higher orders of rotation tend to have more axes of symmetry, as rotational symmetry often implies reflective symmetry. However, this is not a strict rule, as some shapes may possess high rotational symmetry yet fewer axes of symmetry.


Does a rectangular prism have plane symmetry or symmetry about an axis?

I believe it has both. If you draw planes through the middle of opposite sides e.g. top/bottom, left side/right side, front/back, you will get three planes of (refection) symmetry. Also if you draw three lines through those same points, you will get three axes of (rotational) symmetry.
