Best Answer

The triangular prism is a geometric shape that has been known since ancient times, so it is difficult to attribute its invention to a single individual. However, the concept of a prism with a triangular base can be traced back to ancient Greek mathematicians such as Euclid. Euclid's Elements, written around 300 BC, contains detailed explanations of various geometric shapes, including the triangular prism.
