A prism is a geometric solid with two parallel, congruent bases connected by rectangular or parallelogram faces. The most common type is the triangular prism, which has triangular bases, but prisms can be formed with any polygon as a base, leading to various shapes like rectangular, hexagonal, and more. In optics, prisms are used to refract light, and they come in different materials and designs for specific applications. While there are countless variations of prisms based on base shapes and dimensions, they all share this fundamental geometric structure.
