How many faces on a hexagonal prism and where?

Answer 1

A Prism is the name given to a solid which is the same size and shape no matter where you make a perpendicular cut through it at some point along it's length. We say that it's 'cross sectional' shape is unchanged along it's entire length. Answer:- 6 rectangular faces, and 2 hexagonal faces at the ends. Total = 8 Faces. Another example of a Prism is a piece of timber say 4x2 inch x 100 inch long. This is called a rectangular prism and has only 6 faces.
