What is altitude?

== == Science Major: Altitude is height above mean sea level (MSL) or true altitude, which means in reference to what sea level is on the ground, or height above ground level (AGL), which is also called absolute altitude, which means height above the ground with no reference to the ground's height above sea level. In example, if the sea level in a certain place is 100 feet and you are 250 feet above the ground, your altitude above sea level would be 350 feet, and your altitude above ground level would be 250 feet.

Is The slant height of a regular square pyramid is longer than its altitude?

Yes, the slant height of a regular square pyramid is longer than its altitude. The altitude is the perpendicular height from the apex to the center of the base, while the slant height is the distance from the apex to the midpoint of a side of the base. In a right triangle formed by the altitude, half the base side, and the slant height, the slant height serves as the hypotenuse, making it inherently longer than the altitude.
