Does every lateral face in a prism a triangle?
No, there are more that triangular prisms. There are also rectangular prisms and one other that i cant recall.=-)
Are all the faces of a triangular prisms congruent?
No, not all the faces of a triangular prism are congruent. A triangular prism has two congruent triangular bases and three rectangular lateral faces. While the two triangular bases are identical in shape and size, the rectangular faces can vary in dimensions depending on the height of the prism.
Can you draw a three dimensional figures whose lateral faces are rectangles that are prisms and pyramids?
Yes, three-dimensional figures can have lateral faces that are rectangles, specifically in the case of rectangular prisms and pyramids. A rectangular prism consists entirely of rectangular faces, including its lateral faces. In contrast, a rectangular pyramid has a rectangular base and triangular lateral faces, although it can be visualized with rectangular lateral sections if divided appropriately. Thus, while prisms have all rectangular lateral faces, pyramids typically feature triangular lateral faces.
What's the difference between triangular prisms and pyramids?
A triangular prism has two triangular bases and three lateral rectangular faces. It has five faces in all so that it is a pentahedron.A triangular pyramid has a triangular base and three triangular lateral faces. It has 4 faces in all so that it is a tetrahedron.
What are polygonal prisms?
Polygonal prisms are three-dimensional geometric shapes characterized by two parallel bases that are congruent polygons, connected by rectangular lateral faces. The sides of the prism are determined by the number of sides of the polygonal base, which can be triangles, squares, or any polygon. The height of the prism is the perpendicular distance between the two bases. Common examples include triangular prisms and rectangular prisms.

How do you get the volume of a triangular prism?
Like all prisms you find the area of one of the triangular faces and then multiply by the height.

What are the 6 shapes which are prisms?
The six common shapes that are classified as prisms include rectangular prisms, triangular prisms, pentagonal prisms, hexagonal prisms, octagonal prisms, and rhombic prisms. A prism is characterized by having two parallel, congruent bases connected by rectangular lateral faces. Each type of prism is named after the shape of its base.
How many right angles do triangular prisms have?
there is no rght agles in a triangular prisms
What is the formula for finding the volume of a triangular based prism?
Volume = Area of the base X height of prism. This formula works for all prisms, not just triangular prisms. Area of a triangle = height of triangle X 1/2 X base of triangle.
Do triangular prisms always have two bases that are equilateral?
No, Triangular prisms have two bases that are triangular but these need not be equilateral.
What are some names of prisms?
Prisms are named based on the shape of their bases. Common types include triangular prisms, rectangular prisms, and hexagonal prisms. Additionally, there are specialized prisms like pentagonal prisms and octagonal prisms, reflecting the number of sides in their base shapes. Each type retains the characteristic of having two parallel, congruent bases connected by rectangular lateral faces.
What shape have 6 vertices 9 edges and 5 faces?
Triangular prisms.
