To be frank, I don't know how to define pyramid.
Parts of the Pyramid:
A pyramid is formed by connecting a base to an apex.
Actually Whenever we start with pyramid. All of us a sudden what we get in our mind is the Great pyramid of Egypt. But it is a type of pyramid.
We have different types of pyramid based on their bases. They are
It has four faces in which three sides are triangles and the base is also a triangle where four vertices with six edges are present also known as tetrahedron.
Square Pyramid:
It has five faces in which four side faces are triangles and base is a square where five vertices and eight edge are present.
Pentagonal Pyramid:
This has six faces in which five side faces are triangles and base is a pentagon where six vertices and ten edges are present.
This is what I know about Pyramid. These images are taken from Google images.
Parts of the Pyramid:
- Base
- Apex

We have different types of pyramid based on their bases. They are
- Triangular Pyramid
- Square Pyramid
- Pentagonal Pyramid
Triangular Pyramid:
It has four faces in which three sides are triangles and the base is also a triangle where four vertices with six edges are present also known as tetrahedron.
It has five faces in which four side faces are triangles and base is a square where five vertices and eight edge are present.
Pentagonal Pyramid:
This has six faces in which five side faces are triangles and base is a pentagon where six vertices and ten edges are present.
Again they are divided into two types based on apex position. They are
- Right pyramid where the apex is straightly above the base.
- Oblique Pyramid where it is not straight.
And then again into two types based on their Bases. They are
- Regular Pyramid when the base is a regular polygon.
- Irregular Pyramid when the base is a irregular polygon.
