They both have sides that are rectangular in shape.
They both have a constant cross-sectional shape equal to the shape of the ends (triangle for a triangular prism; rectangle for a rectangular prism).

A triangular pyramid, square pyramid, triangular prism,rectangular prism,septagonal prism. Anything that has more than corner.
Does a rectangular prism have at least one triangular face?
yes, it has at least three
Does a triangular prism has 3 rectangular faces?
Short answer, yes. Long answer, a triangular prism has two triangular faces, its bases, and three rectangular faces, its sides, which connect the two faces. Unfolding the prism into a net reveals a rectangle divided into three rectangular sections (these are the three rectangular faces) and two congruent triangles attached along a common edge to one of these rectangles (these are the two triangular faces).
Does a triangular prism have exactly one rectangular base?
Yes. Because a square is a rectangle.
What is a triangular based prism?

How is finding the surface area of rectangular pyramid different from finding the surface area of a triangular prism?
The first comprises one rectangular face and four triangular faces whereas the second has two triangular and three rectangular faces.
Does a prism has one base?
Well if it is a octagonal prism then no because there is a front base and a back base. For a triangular prism, that has 1 base because it is flat on the bottom. And it is pointy at the top where the triangles meet. Rectangular prism -same as triangular prism
