An equilateral triangle based anti prism is simply a "normal" octahedron, as described by someone trying to make things sound more complicated than they are. It has 6 vertices.
Vertices refers to the angles (and is the plural form of vertex). If your "triangle-based prism" has triangles for every face including the base, then it would have three vertices at the base (the bottom triangle) and one at the top (where the three side triangles meet) for a total of four vertices. By "triangle-based prism" you could also mean a pyramid shape with a square base consisting of four vertices at the base and one at the top where the four side triangles meet, in which case there would be five total vertices. * * * * * Total rubbish! A prism is a prism and not a pyramid! A triangle based prism is one with two congruent and parallel triangular faces, joined together by three rectangular faces (like a Toblerone box). It has 6 vertices. A triangular prism has as much to do with a triangular pyramid as an icosahedron!
A triangular based prism has 6 vertices and 9 edges.

A triangular based prism has 6 vertices and 9 edges.
To build the skeleton of a triangle-based prism, you would need 9 straws: 3 for each edge of the triangle base (totaling 9 straws) and 6 additional straws to connect the vertices of the triangle to form the prism.
