Talk:Pyramid (geometry)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I'm new to wikipedia so I wanted to check if adding a section about the formulas for finding the surface area of pyramids would be all right. Because I think it would be fine. --Learning is good 04:32, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

"Since the area of any shape is multiplied by the square of the shape's scaling factor, the area of a cross section at height y is ..." Is this confusing to anyone else? Is there a work missing like "Since the area of any shape is <the base> multiplied by the square of the shape's scaling factor...>. I know <the base> is not the right word, but I don't understand the sentence as it is. --Rusty Maths —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.203.137.22 (talk) 11:00, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
