Definitions • A pyramid is a polyhedron consisting of a single base which is a polygon, and lateral faces which are triangles that meet at a single point called the vertex. • The altitude (height) of the pyramid is the perpendicular distance from the vertex to the base. • The slant heightis the height of one of the lateral faces.
Right and Oblique slant height right oblique
Cones • Acone is like a pyramid but the base is a circle. • The slant heightof a cone is the distance up a side of the cone. slant height
Lateral Area and Surface Area for Pyramids and Cones Half the perimeter times the slant height Lateral area plus the area of the base
