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
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.
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.)
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.
