based on my observations, e=3n, where n is equal to the number of sides of the polygonal bases, but u may have it by leonhard euler's formula for the relationship between faces vertex and edges... f+v=e+2 or simply,, e=f+v-2
have a nice day! ^^

the formula is (vertices+faces)- 2= edges
Edges = 3 x number of sides in end of prism For example, a hexagonal prism would have 3 x 6 = 18 edges since there are 6 sides to a hexagon.
It is triple the number of edges on one base.
number of edges of a n-sided (n>2) prism is 3n. In this case, 30.
there are 5 faces and 6 edges
