they are not sometimes prisms
Well, hello there, friend! Prisms and pyramids are like happy little shapes in our geometric world. A prism has two parallel bases that are the same shape and size, while a pyramid has one base and triangular sides that meet at a single point called the apex. Just remember, whether you're working with prisms or pyramids, they both have their own special charm and beauty.

Pyramids end in one vertex and prisms end in multiple vertices. E.g. Rectangular Prisms are like cubes( multiple vertices) and pyramids are like cones (one vertex).
The surface area of prisms or pyramids are simply the total area of the corresponding nets.
