A cube is technically a special case of the rectangular prism, where all sides are the same length (and all faces have the same area), just as a square is technically a special case of rectangle. The only difference is that a rectangular prism may be any rectangular shape, including one which is taller than it is wide, wider than it is long, etc.

Note: If this question is from work you have been assigned by a teacher or professor, I suggest you do the work yourself instead of trying to find the answers online. This will help you to better understand the material and become more familiar with it. Of course, if this question was not from homework, you can ignore this message.
