Explain the structure of pyramids?
Asked by Aradhya Mathur | 9th Jun, 2013, 09:03: PM
Expert Answer:
In geometry, a pyramid is a polyhedron formed by connecting a polygonal base and a point, called the apex. Each base edge and apex form a triangle. It is a conic solid with polygonal base.
A pyramid with an n-sided base will have n + 1 vertices, n + 1 faces, and 2n edges. All pyramids are self-dual.
When unspecified, the base is usually assumed to be square.
