The correct option is A

Triangles


Determine the pyramid's side faces

Explanation for correct option:

Option (A):

It is clear from the above figure, The side faces of pyramids are triangles.

And the polyhedral with the square face is called a cube

Thus, A pyramid's side faces are triangles.

Hence, Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation for incorrect option:

Option (B):Square

It is clear from the above figure, The side faces of the pyramid are triangles and also the polyhedral with the square face is called cube

Hence,A pyramid's side faces are triangles but not Squares.

Hence, Option (B) is the incorrect answer.

Option (C): Trapezium

It is clear from the above figure of the prism, that the side faces of the pyramid are triangles.

Hence,A pyramid's side faces are triangles but not Trapeziums.

Hence, Option (C) is the incorrect answer.

Option (D):Polygon

It is clear from the above figure of the pyramid, The side faces of pyramids are only triangles.

Polygon figures refer to all kinds of planar figures which are not all possible to include in the pyramid as seen in the figure above of the pyramid.

Hence,A pyramid's side faces are only triangles but not any Polygons.

Hence, Option (D) is the incorrect answer.

Hence the correct answer is Option (A).
