in 3d shapes, a prism must have two congruent bases, and all of the other sides must be made of congruent rectangles. (squares are rectangles.
A2. A prism is a solid with two parallel ends, and of constant cross-section between them. And normally with 90deg between the base and a side.
It may be of any number of sides, and as the number of sides gets large, the shape approaches that of a cylinder.
This is one item of the set of prismatoids, others of which can ignore the 90deg constraint and so on.
A triangular prism has two triangular faces, a rectangular prism does not have any.
Any polygons
A solid shape with regular area and height makes a prism. A solid shape with regular area and height makes a prism. A solid shape with regular area and height makes a prism.
the shape that has 8 faces , 18 edges , and 12 vertices is simply a hexagonal prism not a pyramid my butt :P
because triangle is only 2d shape but a prism is 3d shape
A prism is not so much a concept in algebra, but a geometric shape.
A triangular prism has two triangular faces, a rectangular prism does not have any.
yes, a prism is any 3-dimensional continuous shape
Any polygons
Any kind of prism...:)
That depends on the shape of the base. A prism can have any sort of polygon for its base.
Yes. A prism is any shape where, if you slice it like a sausage, all the pieces are the same shape. For a fishtank, all the slices would be rectangles, and so it is a rectangular prism.
It can be any shape, a cube, rectangular prism.
It is a triangular prism.
That shape is called a triangular prism. A prism is made of rectangles arranged in a tube with any 2D shape at the ends. This shape determines what kind of prism it is, you can get pentagonal, hexagonal, and many other types of prism.
Any 3D shape with a constant cross-section; in other words, a 2D shape stacked on top of itself, like a triangle on a Toblerone box. But it need not be a triangular shape that is stacked. A rectangular 2-d shape would give a cuboid. Any poygonals shape can be stacked for a prism. Not a piramid, or pyramid even, which is not a prism!
