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, rectangles do not have congruent sides. Squares have congruent sides.
A prism is any 3 dimensional geometric object with parallel bases which are congruent polygons. The lateral faces of a prism are parallelograms. We generally talk of an n-sided prism where n is a natural number telling us the number of sides the prism has. To be more precise an prism is a polyhedron with two congruent polygonal faces and all the remaining faces are parallelograms. A cube is a common example of a prism. It has six sides. A triangular prism has 5 sides. So the answer to the questions : how many sides does a prism have? is it all depends on the prism, it can have different number of sides. Now a pyramid is also a 3 dimensional shape but instead of two bases it has one base connected to a point called the apex. The base of a prism is a polygon and a prism is a polyhedron also. It can have different number of sides also so there is once again no fixed answer.
What solid figure has congruent squares on all six sides
squares
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.
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.)
it is a triangular prism with a square bottom
No, rectangles do not have congruent sides. Squares have congruent sides.
Could it be a hexahedron. A cube has 6 sides and they are squares. A rectangular prism has 6 faces that are rectangles.
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.
My answer to that question is eight sides. * * * * * Actually, there is no single answer because a prism is a generic term which is used to describe a polyhedron with two congruent and parallel bases and a number of rectangular faces joining them. If the base is a polygon with n sides (n ≥ 3), then the corresponding prism has n+2 faces. So a prism can have 5 or more faces.

Parallelograms have sides. Opposite sides are congruent.
