A prism is a polyhedron (a many sided 3D shape) with two identical and parallel faces called the bases. The vertices of the two bases are joined by straight lines forming a number of rectangular faces. For example, a pentagonal prism consists of 2 pentagonal faces and 5 rectangular faces, and has 15 edges and 10 vertices.
