all sides of the 3D shape are the same length
The base of a triangular prism is a triangle because the defining characteristic of a triangular prism is that it has two parallel triangular bases connected by three rectangular faces. The shape of the bases determines the prism's geometry; in this case, the triangular bases allow for unique properties like volume and surface area specific to triangular shapes. A square base would instead classify the solid as a rectangular prism, changing its properties and classification.
Prism-like and triangular.
A square prism has six faces.
A square prism can have any height. A cube is a type of square prism, one where the height is the same as the base.
Yes it is.

A Square prism has a square base a triangular has a trianguler base
technically a square prism would be a cube, so i guess not. Ignore that answer. There IS a square prism. A cube has all of its faces congruent and squares. A square prism can have 2 square bases and 4 rectangular lateral faces making it a square prism. Think of it as a rectangular prism right? Well replace the rectangle bases with squares and you have a square prism!
A square prism is always a cuboid.
A square prism has six faces, eight vertices, and twelve edges. A square prism is a type of rectangular prism.
Prism-like and triangular.
They both have 6 faces, 12 edges and 8 vertices but with different dimensional properties.

There is no such thing as a rectangular prism square!
