To identify the figure and describe its attributes correctly, let's analyze the options:
A. Triangular Pyramid: This figure has 4 faces in total: 3 lateral triangular faces and 1 triangular base.
B. Square Pyramid: This figure has 5 faces in total: 4 lateral triangular faces and 1 square base.
C. Pentagonal Pyramid: This figure has 6 faces in total: 5 lateral triangular faces and 1 pentagonal base.
D. Square Pyramid: This option mistakenly states that it has 5 faces when it correctly describes a square pyramid, which indeed has 5 faces (4 triangular lateral faces and 1 square base).
Among these descriptions, options A, B, C, and D are accurately outlining the attributes of their respective pyramids except for the redundancy in option B and D regarding the square pyramid's description.
Based on these characteristics, if you have a figure with 5 faces and a square base, it would be described by option B or D (both refer to a square pyramid but D incorrectly states the number of faces should only be counted once).
Therefore, the figure must either be a Triangular Pyramid (Option A), Square Pyramid (Option B), or a Pentagonal Pyramid (Option C), with B being correctly characterized but stating it has 5 faces ultimately, making Option B the right choice if focusing only on the "square pyramid" choice.
To conclude:
- If the figure has a triangular base: A is correct.
- If it has a square base and 5 faces: B and D fits unless it holistically wrong on counting faces.
- If it has a pentagonal base: choose C.
The final answer will depend on confirming the actual shape visible, but we can classify according to correct descriptions logically.
