A cube, like a prism has two identical parallel faces which are joined by rectangular faces (a square being a special case of a rectangle).

A pyramid, on the other hand, has a number of triangular faces meeting at an apex: a cube has no triangular faces.

What are the plat surfaces on a pyramid cube or rectangular prism called?

The flat surfaces on a pyramid are called faces. A pyramid has one base and triangular faces that meet at a single point called the apex. On a cube or rectangular prism, the flat surfaces are called faces as well. But unlike a pyramid, a cube has six square faces, while a rectangular prism has two rectangular bases and four rectangular faces.
