Understanding Rectangular Pyramids

In this video, Mr. Jay explains how to identify and count the faces, edges, and vertices of a rectangular pyramid. He begins by defining each term and then demonstrates the counting process for each property. The video concludes with a summary of the pyramid's properties: five faces, eight edges, and five vertices.
