a triangular prism has to triangular bases while a rectangular prism has a rectangle as the bases.
It depends on the size of the triangular prism, but depending on the side of the prism you use the triangle area formula to find it or the rectangle area formula to find it.
Cuboid or a triangular prism
Triangular faces (and cross section).
Assume that a = apothem length of the triangular prism, b = base length of the triangular prism, and h = height of the triangular prism. The formulas to find the surface area is SA = ab + 3bh.

It is a triangular prism.
a triangular prism is different from a rectangular prism because: their names are different a triangular prism has a triangle for its' base a rectangular prism has a rectangle base a triangular prism has less sides than a rectangular prism a rectangular prism has more sides than a triangular prism
A triangular PYRAMID has a triangular base.

triangle and rectangle
A triangular prism has 5 sides. Three are rectangles and two are triangles. If you fold the net out flat you can get the dimensions and find the surface area. Each rectangle is length by width. And the triangles should be congruent and remember are length times height divided by two.
