What is a solid with two parallel bases that are congruent polygons and the lateral faces are parallelograms?
A prism.
What solid with two parallel bases that are congruent triangles has later faces that are parallelograms?
It is a prism. More specifically, "A solid figure that has two bases that are parallel, congruent polygons and with all other faces that are parallelograms." This describes the general prism. Replace "polygons" with "triangles" and you have specified a triangular prism.
What is a solid with parallelograms for lateral faces and 2 bases that are congruent pentagons.?
It is a pentagonal prism
What solid figure with two congruent polygons that are bases connected with lateral faces that are rectangles?
They are prisms.
Why cant you use regular polygons as the faces of a platonic solid?
The faces of Platonic solids are regular polygons...

How do you define a prism?
In optics a prism is a transparent solid body, often having triangular bases, used for dispersing light into a spectrum or for reflecting rays of light. In geometry a prism is a solid having bases or ends that are parallel, congruent polygons and sides that are parallelograms. In crystallography a prism is a form having faces parallel to the vertical axis and intersecting the horizontal axes.
