The answer depends mainly on the plane which is used to divide the prism.The result can be a rectangular prism (or a cube), a trapezoidal prism, a triangular prism, but to get really exotic shapes the cutting plane needs to be not parallel to any of the faces or diagonals of the prism.
A rectangular Prism has 12 edges.
Well, honey, a hexagonal prism has six sides, so it has six diagonals on the top face and six on the bottom face, making a total of 12 diagonals there. Then you've got the diagonals connecting the corresponding vertices on the top and bottom faces, which adds another 12 diagonals. So, in total, a hexagonal prism has 24 diagonals. Hope that clears things up for you, darling!
Did you mean vertices? A rectangular prism would have 8 vertices.
