... whereas one of the "bases" of prisms are vertices.
Prisms consist of two polygonal "bases" and rectangular faces joining them. Prisms are named after the polygonal bases.
No, Triangular prisms have two bases that are triangular but these need not be equilateral.
No, it is not always true that two prisms with congruent bases are similar. For two prisms to be similar, their corresponding dimensions must be in proportion, not just their bases. While congruent bases indicate that the shapes of the bases are the same, the heights or scaling of the prisms can differ, affecting their similarity. Thus, two prisms can have congruent bases but still not be similar if their heights or other dimensions differ.

Prisms have two parallel and congruent bases. These bases are connected by rectangular or parallelogram-shaped sides, creating a three-dimensional shape. Examples of prisms include rectangular prisms, triangular prisms, and hexagonal prisms.

Oblique prisms are prisms whose bases are not perpendicular to their length.

Prisms have polygons as bases whereas cylinders have circles as bases. In a way, a cylinder is like a circular prism.
Hexagonal prisms, if you don't count the bases as faces. Rectangular prisms, if you do.
The bases of cylinders are circular whereas the bases of prisms are polygons.
It has two bases, as is the case with all prisms.
