3D model of a pentagonal pyramid When all edges are equal in length, the five triangular faces are equilateral and the base is a regular pentagon. Because this pyramid remains convex and all of its faces are regular polygons , it is classified as the second Johnson solid J 2 {\displaystyle J_{2}} . [ 7 ]
A hexagonal pyramid has seven vertices, twelve edges, and seven faces. One of its faces is hexagon, a base of the pyramid; six others are triangles. Six of the edges make up the pentagon by connecting its six vertices, and the other six edges are known as the lateral edges of the pyramid, meeting at the seventh vertex called the apex.
In geometry, a square pyramid is a pyramid with a square base, having a total of five faces. If the apex of the pyramid is directly above the center of the square, it is a right square pyramid with four isosceles triangles; otherwise, it is an oblique square pyramid. When all of the pyramid's edges are equal in length, its triangles are all ...
[21] [22] A tetrahedron or triangular pyramid is an example that has four equilateral triangles, with all edges equal in length, and one of them is considered as the base. Because the faces are regular, it is an example of a Platonic solid and deltahedra, and it has tetrahedral symmetry. [23] [24] A pyramid with the base as circle is known as ...
the dihedral angle of a pentagonal bipyramid between two adjacent triangles is that of a pentagonal pyramid, approximately 138.2°, and the dihedral angle of a pentagonal bipyramid with regular faces between two adjacent triangular faces, on the edge where two pyramids are attached, is 74.8°, obtained by summing the dihedral angle of a ...
A dodecagonal pyramid is a pyramid with a dodecagonal base. It is a type of tridecahedron, which has 13 faces , 24 edges , and 13 vertices , and its dual polyhedron is itself. [ 5 ] A regular dodecagonal pyramid is a dodecagonal pyramid whose base is a regular dodecagon.
The elements of a polytope can be considered according to either their own dimensionality or how many dimensions "down" they are from the body.
3D model of an elongated pentagonal pyramid. In geometry, the elongated pentagonal pyramid is one of the Johnson solids (J 9). As the name suggests, it can be constructed by elongating a pentagonal pyramid (J 2) by attaching a pentagonal prism to its base.
