One difference: An octahedron has 8 faces, a triangular prism has 5. An octahedron (="eight faces") is a regular high-symmetry solid with all the faces identical. A triangular prism has a triangular base, a triangular roof, and 3 rectangular sides (walls).
An octahedron is a closed 3-d shape with 8 polygonal faces. There are 257 topologically different convex octahedra. An octahedron can have triangles for all eight faces or, as is the case with a hexagonal prism, not a single triangular face.
A Hexahedron has no triangular faces. A Tetrahedron has 4 triangular faces. A octahedron has 8 triangular faces. A Icosahedron has 20 triangular faces. By:-Cherrylvr- :)
There are 5. They are the tetrahedron (4 triangular faces), the cube (6 square faces), the octahedron (8 triangular faces), the dodecahedron (12 pentagonal faces), and the icosahedron (20 triangular faces).
A three-dimensional shape with eight triangular faces is called an octahedron.

A tetrahedron is one such, so is an octahedron.
