A rectangular prism has congruent bases and parallelograms as lateral surfaces.
a prism is a polyhedron with two congruent faces, called bases, that lie in parallel planes. The other faces, called lateral faces, are parellelograms formed by connecting the corresponding vertices of the bases. the segments connecting the vertices are lateral edges. the altitude, or height, of a prism is the perpendicular distance between its bases.

No, a prism cannot have curved sides. A prism is a polyhedron with two parallel and congruent polygonal bases connected by lateral faces that are parallelograms. The lateral faces of a prism are always flat, planar surfaces that are perpendicular to the bases. Curved sides would not meet the definition of a prism.

A polyhedron with at least a pair of parallel faces is often referred to as a "prism." Prisms are characterized by having two parallel, congruent bases connected by rectangular lateral faces. If the bases are not necessarily congruent but still parallel, it may simply be called a "polyhedron with parallel faces."
A solid figure that has two congruent polygons as bases and lateral faces that are rectangles is called a prism. In a prism, the two bases are parallel and congruent, while the lateral faces connect the corresponding sides of the bases and are rectangular in shape. The type of prism is often specified by the shape of its bases, such as triangular prism or rectangular prism.
A solid figure with two congruent polygonal bases and lateral faces that are rectangles is called a prism. The two bases are parallel and congruent, while the lateral faces connect the corresponding sides of the bases, forming rectangular shapes. Prisms can be classified based on the shape of their bases, such as triangular prisms or rectangular prisms.
The bases of a prism or cylinder are congruent and parallel and they meet the lateral face (cynder) or faces (prism) at right angles. A cross section parallel to the longitudinal axis will, therefore, be a rectangle.
