What are two congruent parallel bases?

When a base is congruent it is the same shape and size, and parallel is when they will never touch. Therefore, on a square the top and bottom are congruent parallel bases. Some other examples are: Cylinders, rectangular prisms, and of course parallelograms.


How prism being classified?

Prisms are classified according to the shape of the two congruent and parallel plane shapes which form its bases.


Which solid figure has two parallel bases that are congruent polygons and rectangular faces joining the base?

They are prisms. The bases may be any polygons with three or more sides.


How geometric pyramids and prisms are different?

the difference between a pyramid and prism (in geometry) is that a pyramid has one base and lateral faces that are triangles where prisms have two congruent bases and lateral faces that are parallelograms

What is a 3D figure that has two parallel and congruent triangular bases in the shape of polygons?

What is the relationship between prisms and pyramids?

pyramids are prisms. * * * * * Pyramids are not prisms nor are prisms pyramids. A pyramid has one polygonal base. Each side of that polygon is connected to a triangle, whose third vertices meet at a point above the base of the pyramid. A prism has two congruent polygonal bases that are parallel to one another. They are joined together by rectangles.

How are cones and cylinders similar to pyramids and prisms?

cones are similar to pyramids because they come to a point, also known as the vertex. Cones and pyramids are also conic. Cylinders are similar to prisms because their base, no matter what shape, will translate (slide) all the way up the middle to the top. Basically, their 2 bases should always always always be congruent. Prisms and cylinders are also cylindric.


What are oblique prism?

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