Each and every prism has two parallel congruent bases.
It is the shape of these bases that give the name to the prism: a pentagonal prism has pentagons (not necessarily regular) for its bases.
A pentagonal prism is a prism with two pentagon-shaped bases.
a pentagonal prism
Pentagonal Prism = 2 pentagonal bases + 5 lateral faces Pentagonal Prism = 7 faces Pentagonal Prism has 10 vertices Pentagonal Prism has 15 edges
Pentagonal Prism = 2 pentagonal bases , 5 lateral faces, 10 vertices Pentagonal Prism = 7 faces, 15 edges

a pentagonal prism has 2 bases
A pentagonal prism has 10 vertices; 5 on each of two bases.
The pentagonal prism has seven sides including the bases

pentagonal prism
A pentagonal prism has 5 vertical axes of symmetry that pass through the center of each of the pentagonal bases and the midpoint of the opposite base edges. Additionally, it has 1 horizontal axis of symmetry that runs through the midpoints of the two pentagonal bases. Therefore, a pentagonal prism has a total of 6 axes of symmetry.
All prisms have two bases.
There is no equation - the answer is explicit in the name.A pentagonal prism has pentagonal bases. A pentagon has 5 sides. It could not be simpler!
