Menkaure (or Mycerinus) was the son of Khufu. He gave back some of the properties to the priests that his father had confiscated. He was said to be a just and moderate pharaoh. He had the smallest (of the three big ones near Giza) pyramid built.

What is the height of the pyramids?

If you're asking about the height of an actual pyramid in Egypt, they vary a lot. They're not all a standard size.
