How many sides does a square based pyramid have... it has five including the base !
Depends if it's a square based Pyramid or a Triangular based Pyramid. Square based has 5 sides, Triangular based has 4 sides. Hope I could help!
A pyramid does not need to have any equal sides. A REGULAR pyramid has as many equal sides as the number of sides on the base. So, a triangular pyramid (tetrahedron) will have 3 equal faces, a square based pyramid will have 4, etc.
One square base and four triangular sides.
A square pyramid has one base, and it is a square. That's why it's called a square pyramid. And because the base is a square, it has four sides.
