Volcanoes that are shaped with a sharp peak are typically stratovolcanoes, also known as composite volcanoes. Some examples of stratovolcanoes with distinct sharp peaks include Mount Fuji in Japan, Mount St. Helens in the United States, and Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania.
Mt. Lassen is a lava dome type of volcano. The domes of lava dome volcanoes grows from within, and commonly occur within the craters or on the flanks of large composite volcanoes.

Volcanoes are usually cone shaped mountains or hills.
They are dormant volcanoes.
The main kinds of volcanoes according to shape are shield volcanoes, which have a low, broad profile; stratovolcanoes (or composite volcanoes), which are tall and conical with steep slopes; cinder cone volcanoes, which are small, steep-sided cones made of pyroclastic material; and calderas, which are large, basin-shaped volcanic depressions usually formed by the collapse of a magma chamber.

Mt. Lassen is a lava dome type of volcano. The domes of lava dome volcanoes grows from within, and commonly occur within the craters or on the flanks of large composite volcanoes.
Different shaped volcanoes occur because of the way the magma flows. Three types of volcanoes are shield, composite, and caldera.

It is important to know the definition of new terms. The broad slightly dome-shaped volcanoes in Hawaii are Shield Volcanoes.
The sharp pyramid-shaped peak formed by the erosion of three or more cirques on a mountain is called a horn. This landform is typically created by the intersection of multiple glaciers eroding the mountain from different sides, resulting in steep, jagged peaks. Famous examples include the Matterhorn in the Swiss Alps.
