It could be a cube, and I have a nagging hunch that
there may be other things that it could be.
A polyhedron that has 2 congruent faces is a PRISM. To be a prism, all the other sides (not including the 2 that are congruent) have to be 4-sided.
No, a prism cannot have curved sides. A prism is a polyhedron with two parallel and congruent polygonal bases connected by lateral faces that are parallelograms. The lateral faces of a prism are always flat, planar surfaces that are perpendicular to the bases. Curved sides would not meet the definition of a prism.
No, rectangles do not have congruent sides. Squares have congruent sides.
A prism has two identical polygonal bases connected by rectangular or parallelogram faces, so it has 2 sides. A pyramid has a polygonal base and triangular faces that meet at a common vertex, so it has a total of n+1 sides, where n is the number of sides of the base polygon.
What solid figure has congruent squares on all six sides
A polyhedron that has 2 congruent faces is a PRISM. To be a prism, all the other sides (not including the 2 that are congruent) have to be 4-sided.
A prism has two congruent bases that are parallel and identical in shape. The sides connecting these bases, known as lateral faces, are typically rectangular and can vary in number depending on the type of prism. For example, a triangular prism has three rectangular lateral faces, while a rectangular prism has four. Thus, a prism has at least two congruent sides from its bases, but the total number of congruent sides can vary based on the specific type of prism.
rectangular prism
No a rectangular prism has two sides on the end that are squares.
That all depends on the type of faces a prism has. Then, you should have at most 3 pairs of congruent faces on the opposite sides of the prism.
The six sides of the prism are mutually congruent if the hexagon is a regular one. One base is also congruent to the opposite base. ----------------- (The illustration is an octagonal prism.)

A solid figure that has two congruent polygons as bases and lateral faces that are rectangles is called a prism. In a prism, the two bases are parallel and congruent, while the lateral faces connect the corresponding sides of the bases and are rectangular in shape. The type of prism is often specified by the shape of its bases, such as triangular prism or rectangular prism.
it is a triangular prism with a square bottom
No, rectangles do not have congruent sides. Squares have congruent sides.
A triangular prism always has 5 sides. It has two triangular bases and 3 rectangular faces. If the bases are not congruent it is called an oblique prism.
The parallel faces of a triangular prism are both shaped like triangles. These triangular faces are congruent, meaning they have the same size and shape. The other three faces of the prism, which connect the corresponding sides of the triangles, are rectangular.
