The only two parallel faces on a prism are the ends.
How many parallel faces does a rectangular prism have?
A rectangular prism has six faces, and each pair of opposite faces is parallel to each other. Therefore, a rectangular prism has three pairs of parallel faces.
What dose prism mean in math terms?
A prism has 2 congruent parallel faces called bases. The other faces, most often rectangles, are called lateral faces. The prism is named by the shape of its base.
How many parallel faces does a triangular prism have?
A triangular prism has 2 parallel faces, which are the triangular bases of the prism. Additionally, the lateral faces of a triangular prism are parallelograms, but they are not parallel to each other. Therefore, the total number of parallel faces in a triangular prism is 2.
What is prism bases?
They are a pair of congruent and parallel faces of a prism.
How is a cylinder like a prism?
Both, a cylinder and a prism have two faces (bases) at either end. These are parallel and identical. A plane that is parallel to these bases will cut the cylinder (or prism) in identical cross sections.

A prism.
Does a pentagonal prism have parallel faces?
Yes, its bases will normally be parallel.
How do you determine the base of a prism?
Look at the prism. If all faces are rectangular (or square) then so are the bases. Otherwise they are the two congruent parallel faces that are not rectangular. Look at the prism.
