It is a prism that irregular.
It is a prism but it may be diagonal, with unequal sides or with uneven edges. Any shape is irregular if it is not the way it should be or it does not have sides the correct length.

What is area of prism 5cm 4cm 3cm?
It depends on the prism. Is it a triangular prism, a rectangular prism, a pentagonal prism... etc..
What are the names of all prisms?
Triangular Prism Rectangular Prism Polygonal Prism Hexagonal Prism
What is the difference between a regular prism and an oblique prism?
an oblique prism is slanted and a regular prism is not, its right.
What shape has 6 rectangular faces and 2 hexagonal faces?
A hexagonal prism has 6 rectangular faces and 2 hexagonal faces. Since it has 8 faces in total, it is a type of irregular octahedron, however it is correctly classified as a prismatic uniform polyhedron to avoid ambiguity with the regular octahedron with triangular faces. The hexagonal prism forms the basis of the hexagonal prismatic honeycomb.
Differences between a rectangular prism and a hexagonal prism?
A rectangular prism has 6 faces while a hexagonal prism has 8 faces.
Can a prism have one plane of symmetry?
Yes, if it is a prism with an irregular base.
What is the term for trapezoidal prism?
An irregular hexahedron.
Is a book a rectangluar prism?
A book is typically not a perfect rectangular prism because its pages create irregular edges and thickness. However, if you consider just the covers, they could be seen as forming a rectangular prism shape.
A irregular shape with 2 triangle 3 rectangle?
A triangular prism would fit the given description
Is a solid formed by various prisms also considered a prism?
No, they could form a very irregular pile of prisms.
Which solid figure is not a prism?
A regular polyhedron (other than a hexahedron), any pyramid, as well as most irregular polyhedra.
What is a space figure with 6 faces?
The generic term is a hexahedron. It can be a pentagonal pyramid, or a quadrilateral prism (or a more irregular version of that).
How do you graph the volume of a pentagonal prism?
It depends on what dimension(s) of the pentagonal prism are changing. If none then you have only one data point and so nothing to graph. The number of measures that can vary [the degrees of freedom] will range from 2 (for a regular pentagon) to 8 for an irregular pentagonal prism (5 sides of pentagon, 2 diagonals and the length). The reason to include the diagonals is that the lengths of the five sides alone do not uniquely determine the shape of the pentagon and so the volume of the prism. So, in the case of an irregular pentagonal prism, you will need to plot the volume in 9 dimensional space. Have fun!
How many faces on a hexagonal prism?
The prefix hex- denotes a six sided polygon, so a hexagonal prism will have a six-sided base and, in total, will have eight faces: it is an octohedron.Provided the faces are all regular the hexagonal prism is referred to as a semiregular polyhedron, but could be defined in other terms if the faces are irregular.
What is the hardest 3D shape?
The question is not clear. Hardest, as in the most rigid, is a triangular prism (or tetrahedron). Hardest, to work the geometry of, is probably an irregular blob.
What shape has two opposite identical faces?
A cube, a dodecahedron, an icosahedron amongst regular polyhedra. Many irregular polyhedra, including a prism.
Does an octagonal prism have perpendicular faces?
Prisms with any number of sides can have perpendicular faces. Often both end faces are perpendicular to the length. In the case of a REGULAR octagonal prism, there will be four pairs of parallel faces, where each face of a pair will be perpendicular to the two faces of one of the other pairs. There is not much that can be said with certainty about an irregular octagonal prism.
