| In [[geometry]], a '''square pyramid''' is a [[Pyramid (geometry)|pyramid]] having a [[square (geometry)|square]] base. If the [[Apex (geometry)|apex]] is perpendicularly above the center of the square, it will have ''C''<sub>4v</sub> symmetry.

| |
| == Johnson solid (J1) ==
| |
| If the sides are all [[equilateral triangle]]s, the pyramid is one of the [[Johnson solid]]s (J<sub>1</sub>). The 92 Johnson solids were named and described by [[Norman Johnson (mathematician)|Norman Johnson]] in 1966. galen verg...
| |
| | |
| The Johnson square pyramid can be characterized by a single edge-length parameter ''a''. The height ''H'' (from the midpoint of the square to the apex), the surface area ''A'' (including all five faces), and the volume ''V'' of such a pyramid are:
| |
| :<math>H=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}a</math>
| |
| :<math>A=(1+\sqrt{3})a^2</math>
| |
| :<math>V=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{6}a^3.</math>
| |
| | |
| == Other square pyramids ==
| |
| Other square pyramids have [[isosceles]] triangle sides.
| |
| | |
| For square pyramids in general, with base length ''l'' and height ''h'', the surface area and volume are:
| |
| :<math>A=l^2+l\sqrt{l^2+(2h)^2}</math>
| |
| :<math>V=\frac{1}{3}l^2h.</math>

| |align=center|A regular [[octahedron]] can be considered a square [[bipyramid]], i.e. two Johnson square pyramids connected base-to-base.
| |
| |The [[tetrakis hexahedron]] can be constructed from a [[cube]] with short square pyramids added to each face.

| === Dual polyhedron ===
| |
| | |
| The square pyramid is topologically a [[self-dual polyhedron]]. The dual edge lengths are different due to the [[polar reciprocation]].
