Well if you mean triangular pyramid and triangular prism then:

A triangular pyramid is a geometric solid with a base that is a triangle and all other faces are triangles with a common vertex.

A triangular prism is a geometric solid with two bases that are congruent (identical), parallel triangles and all other faces are parallelograms. It is referred to as a right triangular prism if the faces are rectangles.
