Definition: Pyramid

A pyramid is a three-dimensional geometric shape that has a polygon as its base and triangular faces that meet at a common point called the apex or vertex. The base can be any polygon, such as a square, triangle, rectangle, pentagon, or hexagon.

The lateral area of a pyramid is the sum of the areas of its lateral (or side) faces.

The formulas for the lateral area and the total surface area of a pyramid:

Lateral Surface Area of Regular Pyramid (LSA) = \$(½)"Pl" \$Square units

Total Surface Area of Regular Pyramid (TSA) = \$(½)"Pl" + "B"\$Square units
