What we call a prism if the lateral edge is perpendicular to both sides?

If the lateral edge of a prism is perpendicular to both the bases, the prism is called a right prism. In a right prism, the sides connecting the bases are perpendicular to the base faces, resulting in a uniform cross-section along its height. This characteristic distinguishes it from an oblique prism, where the sides are not perpendicular to the bases.
