What characteristic names a prism?
a prism is a polyhedron with two congruent faces, called bases, that lie in parallel planes. The other faces, called lateral faces, are parellelograms formed by connecting the corresponding vertices of the bases. the segments connecting the vertices are lateral edges. the altitude, or height, of a prism is the perpendicular distance between its bases.
What are the difference between a right prism and an oblique prism?
In a right prism, the lateral sides are perpendicular to the bases and so all of them are rectangular.In an oblique prism, the lateral sides are not perpendicular to the bases so that some of them (at least) are non-rectangular parallelograms.In a right prism, the lateral sides are perpendicular to the bases and so all of them are rectangular.In an oblique prism, the lateral sides are not perpendicular to the bases so that some of them (at least) are non-rectangular parallelograms.In a right prism, the lateral sides are perpendicular to the bases and so all of them are rectangular.In an oblique prism, the lateral sides are not perpendicular to the bases so that some of them (at least) are non-rectangular parallelograms.In a right prism, the lateral sides are perpendicular to the bases and so all of them are rectangular.In an oblique prism, the lateral sides are not perpendicular to the bases so that some of them (at least) are non-rectangular parallelograms.
How many faces vertices and edges does a perpendicular prism have?
There is no such shape as a perpendicular prism.
Describe the lateral faces of a rectangular prism?
The lateral faces will be parallelograms, and the opposite faces will be congruent. In a right prism, the lateral faces will be rectangles.
Does a pentangular prism have a perpendicular face?
The two bases are usually perpendicular to the lateral faces.
