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.

What shape has 16 corners and 10 flat sides?
Assuming there are no curved sides, it is a decahedron. It is likely to be an octagonal prism but there may be other configurations.
How many curved surfaces does a triangular prism?
A triangular prism contains zero curved and 5 flat surfaces.
Can a prism have a curved face?
No, it cannot.
Name of quadrilateral with 2 curved sides?
A quadrilateral is a shape with four straight sides. There are no curved sides in a quadrilateral.
Can a triangular prism roll?
No, a triangular prism cannot roll because it does not have a circular cross-section like a cylinder or a sphere. Rolling requires a continuous curved surface that can rotate around an axis. A triangular prism has a polygonal cross-section with flat sides, so it would slide rather than roll.
Is a cylinder a prism?
No, a prism has flat sides. Triangular prisms are very common, but any polygon can be the cross section of a prism.
What shape has 16 corners and 10 flat sides?
Assuming there are no curved sides, it is a decahedron. It is likely to be an octagonal prism but there may be other configurations.
Is prism has curved surface?
No prism can have a curved surface.
What is the number of curved surfaces in a hexagonal prism?
a hexagonal prism has 0 curved surfaces
How many curved faces are there in rectangular prism?
A rectangular prism is a cuboid. It has no curved faces.
How many curved have prism?
It has no CURVED faces.
How is a cylinder and a prism alike and different?
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.
How many curved faces prism have?
It has no CURVED faces.
How many flat and curved surface have a prism?
A prism has no curved surfaces. It has 5 or more flat faces.
Why are prisms and cylinders alike?
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.
How many curved surfaces does a triangular prism?
A triangular prism contains zero curved and 5 flat surfaces.
How many curved edges does a triangular prism?
it has 0 curved edges
