A lateral side of a shape refers to any side that is not a base or a top, typically found in three-dimensional figures like prisms and cylinders. In two-dimensional shapes, the term is often used to describe the sides of polygons, excluding any designated bases. For example, in a rectangular prism, the lateral sides are the four vertical sides, while the top and bottom faces are considered the bases.
