For the curved pyramid, the angle of the pyramid was changed. There are several reasons why the slope has changed:
Calculation error, sudden death of the king for this reason, the workers had to modify the slope in order to complete the pyramid more quickly, if construction continued on the original slope, the pyramid would collapse due to the heavy masonry. And cracks appeared during construction and were filled with plaster.
