math
the difference between them is that the bottom face is different one of them is a rectangle and one of them is a square
A triangular prism has a uniformed cross-section whereas a rectangular pyramid does not.
One has a rectangle on the bottom and the other has a square on the bottom.
The shape is 3 dimensional, the top down view is 2 dimensional.
A Rectangular pyramid has a base of 4 points, and they lead up to the top point, like a triangle. A rectangular prism has a base of 4, the sides have 4 and the top as well, like a box.
Both views are of a rectangle. One of the sides will be of the same size but he other dimensions can be different.
the top down view is the full (whole) thing. It's the biggest part of the shape.
Difference 1: A prism has two bases that are parallel to each other. A pyramid has only one base. Difference 2: The sides of a prism are rectangular (these are the sides that aren't the bases)_. The sides of a pyramid are triangular.
rectangle triangle there is a difference
rectangular prism has 8 vertices. rectangular pyramid has 5 vertices. Difference is 3.
The difference is 90 degrees.The side view looks like a triangle.The top view looks like a rectangle with its diagonals.
The difference in a triangular and rectangular pyramid only has to do with the base of the pyramid, which in turn decide how many sides the pyramid will have. A triangular pyramid has a base shaped like a triangle, which ends up having a total of 4 sides (including the base itself). A rectangular pyramid has a rectangular base, which ends up having a total of 5 sides (including the base itself).
