Since all sides of the Egyptian pyramids are equilateral, they cannot be said to "face" in any particular direction. The pyramids were all built on the west bank of the Nile, to symbolize the realm of the dead, as the sun sets over them.
They can only see each other facing each other(i.e. facing opposite directions).. If they are face in same directions...they will not see each other..

The pyramids of Egypt were built in a triangular shape to represent a mound. The shape was a representation of the Egyptian belief that the Earth came from a mound. Note that while the pyramids are triangular from the side, they actually occupy a square footprint (i.e. square pyramids). This was in order to align the pyramids with the cardinal directions.
No, when the egyptians built the pyramids, pharoah ordered them to face all ways so that he could show the symbal of Egypt.

For essentially the same reason that blocks in most midwestern towns do: the builders planned it that way.
