Holt Geometry


The vertex of a pyramid is the point opposite the base of the pyramid. The base of a regular pyramid is a regular polygon, and the lateral faces are congruent isosceles triangles. The slant height of a regular pyramid is the distance from the vertex to the midpoint of an edge of the base. The altitude of a pyramid is the perpendicular segment from the vertex to the plane of the base.

Holt Geometry


The lateral faces of a regular pyramid can be arranged to cover half of a rectangle with a height equal to the slant height of the pyramid. The width of the rectangle is equal to the base perimeter of the pyramid.

Holt Geometry


The vertex of a cone is the point opposite the base. The axis of a cone is the segment with endpoints at the vertex and the center of the base. The axis of a right cone is perpendicular to the base. The axis of an oblique cone is not perpendicular to the base.

Holt Geometry


The slant height of a right cone is the distance from the vertex of a right cone to a point on the edge of the base. The altitude of a cone is a perpendicularsegment from the vertex of the cone to the plane of the base.
