Mission 2: Building a Pyramid
    Challenge

    So you think your an Egyptian scholar now, do you?  Well, to finish your mission you have to complete the challenge of Giza.  Using the materials supplied for you, you must now build a pyramid.  Remember that there are four sides to a pyramid, and each side is equilateral with 60 degree angles.

    Suggestions:
        1. Each side of your pyramid should be about 8 to 12 inches in height.
        2. Measure each side with a ruler and protractor for accuracy.
        3. Glue all the sides together, except for one that will be able to be removed to reveal the inside of the pyramid (to be explained in future missions).
