Pyramids Pyramid Pyramid – A three dimensional figure in which one face, the base, is any polygon and the lateral faces are triangles that meet at a common vertex. vertex
3
Pyramids cont. The altitude of a pyramid is the perpendicular segment from the vertex to the plane of the base. The length of the altitude is called the height. Height Pyramid
4
Pyramids cont. Regular Pyramid – a pyramid whose base is a regular polygon. Slant Height – the length of the altitude of the lateral face. Slant Height Pyramid
