Geometry
A square pyramid is a special case of a pyramid where the base is a square.
Equations
- Variables:
l ⇒ length of edges of the square pyramid
- The hypervolumes of a square pyramid are given by:
total edge length = 8l
surface area = l2(1+2√3)
volume = l36-1√2
- The planar cross-sections (n) of a square pyramid are:
[!x,!y] ⇒ triangle
[!z] ⇒ square
