Hello im trying to make a pyramid for something i'm making but cant figure out how?

You can loft from a square/triangle to a point. Draw the base shape on one plane then create a plane offset from that one and add a single sketch point then use loft.

@toxic_noodle832, Kindly refer below video which will be helpful to you for creating pyramid as suggested by @NeilCooke

You can also extrude the triangle with a draft to get the same result. Just extend the extrude distance beyond the converging point.

The method you use should depend on what your design intent is - or in other words - which is more important, the height or the angle?

If I wanted to use a pyramid as a roof of a rectangular prism of a house, how would I do so?

see @NeilCooke and @viru 's posts above

Viru's animation is what you're doing, but just draw a square instead of a triangle, or any shape for that matter
