The Egyptians did know a lot about electricity and magnetism. Western History like s to downplay these facts because it would mean that Blacks were the first to discover electricity. Take Chris for example, to this day in modern American history books, he is still accredited with "discovering" the Americas. Moot point in the answer of your question.
It is documented and there are exhibits in museums in Egypt and the Smithsonian Museum in DC, of Egyptian batteries. The pyramids were built perfectly aligned with true north, and flush parallel on the 26deg West latitude. They also had a similar type of measurement of the curvature of the Earth and knew that the magnetic north of their compasses didn't point true north. In their mapping they also knew how to make this correction when navigating. Zecharia Sitchin talks of much of this and uses their knowledge of this as proof the Aliens visited the earth and gave it to us. Interesting reading material. I didn't know about the alien stuff, but his historical facts, references, and knowledge of ancient civilisations is outstanding. Definitely worth taking a look at. That's why people are making fun of your question, but I thought it was a normal and good question to ask.

They also had atomic weapons, and destroyed their society with them. And using anit-gravity sleds, actually transportede large magnetite crystals to South America, which is what those pyramids are. They also carved the face on Mars, and built a base on the far side of the moon.
Let's see... have I forgotten any other fantasies?

No. The Egyptians were barely aware of bronze. Any primitive fool could find true directions without a compass. With enough slaves and enough time the Egyptians could build anything.
Pi is 3.141592.... not a crystal. The pyramids were fancy burial sites. The Egyptians had this perverse facination with death.
What mystery did you think you were figuring out????

Good. I was concerned that the tetrahedrons were referring to carbon for some reason, and the loops DNA. Darn those Martians were smart.

I thought it was cause when the sun shone thru the clouds it would create a pyramid shape from the rays of light.

Yes! They sure did! I have a television set that dates back to the ancient Egyptians! I found it in the trash while doing a curbside archaeological dig I put it alongside my ancient Mesopotamian video player!

Well, thank goodness. My family, my friends, heck... even strangers on the street... we've all been worried sick about design of the pyramids. I'll spread the word so we can all sleep tonight.

And here I always thought they were stable structures which could be made very large inside which chambers could be built. How dumb of me.

....OR, they could have laid out the pyramids out with an idea, a string, a water level, and a sundial. Don't over-think things, it causes foolish questions to form!
