Solution

The correct option is D

None of these


Explanation for the correct option:

Option (D) None of these

The faces of pyramids can be rectangular and triangular.

A pyramid is a three-dimensional shape. A pyramid has a polygonal base and flat triangular faces, which join at a common point called the apex. A pyramid is formed by connecting the bases to an apex. Each edge of the base is connected to the apex and forms the triangular face, called the lateral face. If a pyramid has an n-sided base, then it has n+1 faces, n+1 vertices, and 2n edges. Based on the shape of the base of the pyramid, the pyramid is classified as a triangular pyramid, square pyramid, pentagonal pyramid.

Hence, option (D) is the correct option.
