No.
the difference between a pyramid and prism (in geometry) is that a pyramid has one base and lateral faces that are triangles where prisms have two congruent bases and lateral faces that are parallelograms
they are not sometimes prisms
Well, hello there, friend! Prisms and pyramids are like happy little shapes in our geometric world. A prism has two parallel bases that are the same shape and size, while a pyramid has one base and triangular sides that meet at a single point called the apex. Just remember, whether you're working with prisms or pyramids, they both have their own special charm and beauty.
Both pyramids and prisms are three dimensional. Both of them have polygon faces. Another thing common about pyramids and prisms is that they have a base and faces.
i am not sure.
One difference is square pyramids have 4 triangular faces while rectangular prisms have none!
The surface area of prisms or pyramids are simply the total area of the corresponding nets.
pyramids are prisms. * * * * * Pyramids are not prisms nor are prisms pyramids. A pyramid has one polygonal base. Each side of that polygon is connected to a triangle, whose third vertices meet at a point above the base of the pyramid. A prism has two congruent polygonal bases that are parallel to one another. They are joined together by rectangles.
They are both polyhedra.

Pyramids and cones have a pointed top (apex) while prisms and cylinders have flat tops. Pyramids and cones have a single base, while prisms have two parallel bases. Cones have a curved surface while pyramids have triangular faces.
