Assuming there are no curved sides, it is a decahedron. It is likely to be an octagonal prism but there may be other configurations.
A triangular prism contains zero curved and 5 flat surfaces.
No, it cannot.
A quadrilateral is a shape with four straight sides. There are no curved sides in a quadrilateral.
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.
No, a prism has flat sides. Triangular prisms are very common, but any polygon can be the cross section of a prism.
Assuming there are no curved sides, it is a decahedron. It is likely to be an octagonal prism but there may be other configurations.
No prism can have a curved surface.
No. It does refract light, but it has a curved surface. Prisms typically have three or more sides that are parallel to a single axis. While a crystal ball does have an axis, too, it's "sides" are curved. Plus, being solid, it handles the light much differently than a prism does.
a hexagonal prism has 0 curved surfaces
A rectangular prism is a cuboid. It has no curved faces.
It has no CURVED faces.
Alike: Both Cylinder and Prism have the same corresponding Top and Bottom. This is the definition. A Cylinder can be considered as a prism with infinite no. of sides. Different: The side walls of any Prism are flat but that of a cylinder is curved.
It has no CURVED faces.
A prism has no curved surfaces. It has 5 or more flat faces.
