A square pyramid is a three-dimensional shape with a square base and four triangular faces that meet at a single point called the apex or vertex. It is also known as a pyramid with a square base.

Properties of a Square Pyramid:

Base: The base of a square pyramid is a square.
Height: The height of a square pyramid is the perpendicular distance from the base to the apex.
Edges: A square pyramid has 8 edges in total - 4 along the base and 4 extending from the apex to the corners of the base.
Vertices: The square pyramid has 5 vertices - 1 at the apex and 4 at the corners of the base.
Surface Area: The surface area of a square pyramid can be calculated using the formula:
Surface Area = Base Area + (1/2) * Perimeter of Base * Slant Height
Volume: The volume of a square pyramid can be calculated using the formula:
Volume = (1/3) * Base Area * Height

Study Guide:
