Does a prism has one base?
Well if it is a octagonal prism then no because there is a front base and a back base. For a triangular prism, that has 1 base because it is flat on the bottom. And it is pointy at the top where the triangles meet. Rectangular prism -same as triangular prism
What term describes a prism that only has one base positioned opposite of a single point?
The term that best describes it is an "oxymoron". A solid shape with one base opposite a single point is not a prism so such an object cannot exist.
How many congruent faces are on a hexagonal prism?
The six sides of the prism are mutually congruent if the hexagon is a regular one. One base is also congruent to the opposite base. ----------------- (The illustration is an octagonal prism.)
What prism has a polygon base and vertex over the center of the base?
It would have to be an oblique prism. That is one in which one of the bases has been translated or rotated with respect to the other.
Does a prism have 2 bases?
no it only has one base
What is the difference between a triangular prism and a pyramid?
A prism has 2 bases and a pyramid has only one base.
Why is a cone not a prism?
A cone has a curved surface and only has one base (the bottom). A prism however, has two bases (the top and bottom) and has only polygonal faces. A cone also has an apex which a prism doesn't.
How many bases does a pentagonal pyramid have?
it has only one base and not more than the prism has more than one
Can a prism have one plane of symmetry?

What shape is the base of an pentagonal prism?
The base of a pentagonal prism is a pentagon. Just like a square pyramid has a square for a base, a pentagonal prism has a pentagon for a base.
Formula for volume of triangular prism?
To find the volume of a triangular prism, find the area of one of the triangles (base of the prism) first (base x height divided by 2). When you have the area of the triangle, then multiply the area of the triangle by the height of the prism, *not the height of the base.
The figure formed by the intersection of a solid with a plane parallel to the base of the solid is congruent to the base if the solid is?
A prism. A prism is named for its base, eg a triangular prism has a triangle for the base. If the base is a circle, the circular prism is called a cylinder.
Which characteristic do a prism and a pyramid NOT have in common?
