How are prisms and cylinders alike and different?
Prisms have polygonal cross sections and several rectangular lateral faces. Cylinders have circular cross sections and one curved lateral face.
The difference between cylinders and prisms is that cylinders have 2 bases whereas the bases of prisms are?
... whereas one of the "bases" of prisms are vertices.
How are cylinders and rectangular prisms similar?
Cylinders are circles pulled out into the third dimension and rectangular prisms are rectangles pulled into the third dimension.
Which can be used as prism?
Cylinders and cuboids are types of prisms.
What are examples of prisms pyramids cylinders and cones in real life?
Prisms: Feed troughs, bathtubs, and boxes. Pyramids: Pyramids of Egypt and the Aztecs. Cylinders: Cans, pistons, tubes, and pipes. Cones: Ice cream cones, funnels, and the bottom part of a water tower.

Which can be used as prism?

What solid figures that have no vertices?
Spheres, cylinders and sometimes prisms
What kinds of 3d shapes are there?
There is prisms and pyramids. There are also spheres and cylinders
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.
