It is a square based pyramid. And the word is which, not witch!
One square or rectangle as it's base, and the other sides are triangles.
A pyramid. The square being the base and the triangles the 'sides' - each having a side connected to a side of the square - the other sides connected to 'neighbor-triangles'.
Yes. Consider the situation when: the right-angled triangles are also isosceles and the hypotenuse (longest side) of the triangles is equal to the side of the square. If you surround a square with four of right-angled triangles (the sides of the square being in contact with the hypotenuses of the triangles), you get a larger shape which is also a square. Taking this as a basic unit, you can make a tesselations. You can also make tessalations if you have two sets of squares, one with sides the same length of the hypotenuse of the triangles and one with sides the same length as the smaller sides of the triangles.
A regular octahedron - two square based pyramids stuck together along their square bases.
A type of irregular shape, including scalene triangles, and many other shapes. Circles would work too.

triangle and square 4 triangles one square
Triangular. the base is square, with four other triangular faces.

There are 4 triangles that make up a pyramid. 4 on the sides and on the bottom a square or rectangle.
A square * * * * * No, the shape is equilateral. You can have equilateral triangles, 4-sided shapes such as rhombi, or polygons with 5 or more sides. A square is just one specific example.

The same as other pyramids -- 5. 4 triangles and one square.
Differences: Squares have 4 sides / equilateral triangles have 3 sides. Squares have 90 degree angles / equilateral triangles have 60 degree angles. Squares have 2 diagonals / equilateral triangles have none Similarities: All sides of the shape are congruent All angles of the shape are congruent
