The faces are always rectangles on prisms, so if it's a triangular prism the bases are triangles; if it's a rectangular prism, the bases are rectangles; if it's a hexagonal prism, the bases are hexagons.
Any polygon can form the base of a prism.
Some people also consider cylinders to be circular prisms. In which case any closed plane shape can form the base of a prism.

How many possible pairs of bases does a rectangular prism have?
A triangular prism has five bases because it can be flipped over to form five different bases
How many bases does a prism have?
It depends on what kind of prism you mean. For example, a rectangular prism has 6 bases and a triangular prism has 5 bases. A triangular prism only has two bases.
How many bases does a triangle prism have?
A triangular prism has 2 bases on it!
What is the difference between a triangular prism and a hexagonal prism?

How is a cylinder like a prism?
Both, a cylinder and a prism have two faces (bases) at either end. These are parallel and identical. A plane that is parallel to these bases will cut the cylinder (or prism) in identical cross sections.

What is the definition of a hexeganal prism?
A hexagonal prism is a three dimensional shape with two hexagonal bases and six faces. If the faces do not form a right angle with the bases, it is considered an oblique prism.

What does a triangular prism have that rectangular prism does not have?
a triangular prism has to triangular bases while a rectangular prism has a rectangle as the bases.
What makes a prism?
In its most generalised form it comprises two connected, congruent and parallel faces: these faces are called the bases. In a right prism, the bases are at right angles to the length of the prism. In a polyhedral prism, all faces are polygons and, in such a case, the faces joining the bases are quadrilaterals. In the very special case of a right polyhedral prism, the bases are polygons and the lateral faces are rectangles.
How many bases of a pentagonal prism?
Each and every prism has two parallel congruent bases. It is the shape of these bases that give the name to the prism: a pentagonal prism has pentagons (not necessarily regular) for its bases.
