Square pyramid

In geometry, a square pyramid is a pyramid having a square base. If the apex is perpendicularly above the center of the square, it is a right square pyramid, and has C4v symmetry. If all edges are equal, it is an equilateral square pyramid, the Johnson solid J1. In geometry, a square pyramid is a pyramid having a square base. If the apex is perpendicularly above the center of the square, it is a right square pyramid, and has C4v symmetry. If all edges are equal, it is an equilateral square pyramid, the Johnson solid J1. A possibly oblique square pyramid with base length l and perpendicular height h has volume: In a right square pyramid, all the lateral edges have the same length, and the sides other than the base are congruent isosceles triangles. A right square pyramid with base length l and height h has surface area and volume:
