No, it is not always true that two prisms with congruent bases are similar. For two prisms to be similar, their corresponding dimensions must be in proportion, not just their bases. While congruent bases indicate that the shapes of the bases are the same, the heights or scaling of the prisms can differ, affecting their similarity. Thus, two prisms can have congruent bases but still not be similar if their heights or other dimensions differ.

A shape with two congruent bases is a prism. In a prism, the two bases are parallel and identical in shape and size, while the sides, or lateral faces, connect these bases. Common examples of prisms include rectangular prisms and triangular prisms. These congruent bases allow for the calculation of the prism's volume using the area of the base multiplied by the height.
A solid figure that has two congruent polygons as bases and lateral faces that are rectangles is called a prism. The two bases are parallel and identical, while the lateral faces connect corresponding sides of the bases and are rectangular in shape. Prisms can be categorized based on the shape of their bases, such as triangular prisms or rectangular prisms.
Yes providing the cross section remains the same
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.

Prisms.
Prisms have two parallel and congruent bases. These bases are connected by rectangular or parallelogram-shaped sides, creating a three-dimensional shape. Examples of prisms include rectangular prisms, triangular prisms, and hexagonal prisms.
No. Their "bases" are at right angles to the rectangles connecting the bases.

No. They may have a different height, or slant up at a different angles.
The cylinder and the prisms bases are similar because its a flat surface.
They are prisms.
No, Triangular prisms have two bases that are triangular but these need not be equilateral.
Prisms are named based on the shape of their bases. Common types include triangular prisms, rectangular prisms, and hexagonal prisms. Additionally, there are specialized prisms like pentagonal prisms and octagonal prisms, reflecting the number of sides in their base shapes. Each type retains the characteristic of having two parallel, congruent bases connected by rectangular lateral faces.
