  2. Square pyramidal number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_pyramidal_number

    A square pyramid of cannonballs at Rye Castle in England 4900 balls arranged as a square pyramid of side 24, and a square of side 70. The cannonball problem asks for the sizes of pyramids of cannonballs that can also be spread out to form a square array, or equivalently, which numbers are both square and square pyramidal. Besides 1, there is ...

  3. Square pyramid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_pyramid

    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 equilateral. It is called an equilateral square pyramid, an example of a Johnson solid.

  4. Elongated square bipyramid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elongated_square_bipyramid

    Its dihedral angle can be obtained in a similar way as the elongated square pyramid, by adding the angle of square pyramids and a cube: [7] The dihedral angle of an elongated square bipyramid between two adjacent triangles is the dihedral angle of an equilateral triangle between its lateral faces, arccos ⁡ ( − 1 / 3 ) ≈ 109.47 ∘ ...

  5. Pyramid (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyramid_(geometry)

    The base regularity of a pyramid's base may be classified based on the type of polygon: one example is the star pyramid in which its base is the regular star polygon. [28] The truncated pyramid is a pyramid cut off by a plane; if the truncation plane is parallel to the base of a pyramid, it is called a frustum.

  6. Gyroelongated square bipyramid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyroelongated_square_bipyramid

    The surface area of a gyroelongated square bipyramid is 16 times the area of an equilateral triangle, that is: [4], and the volume of a gyroelongated square bipyramid is obtained by slicing it into two equilateral square pyramids and one square antiprism, and then adding their volume: [4] + +.

  7. List of two-dimensional geometric shapes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_two-dimensional...

    This is a list of two-dimensional geometric shapes in Euclidean and other geometries. For mathematical objects in more dimensions, see list of mathematical shapes. For a broader scope, see list of shapes.

  8. Elongated square pyramid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elongated_square_pyramid

    The height of an elongated square pyramid can be calculated by adding the height of an equilateral square pyramid and a cube. The height of a cube is the same as the edge length of a cube's side, and the height of an equilateral square pyramid is ( 1 / 2 ) a {\displaystyle (1/{\sqrt {2}})a} .

  9. Missing square puzzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missing_square_puzzle

    The missing square puzzle is an optical illusion used in mathematics classes to help students reason about geometrical figures; or rather to teach them not to reason using figures, but to use only textual descriptions and the axioms of geometry. It depicts two arrangements made of similar shapes in slightly different configurations.
