What else can I help you with?
A cylinder is a prism of?
A cylinder has to parallel bases (circles) therefore a cylinder is circular prism
What is the difference between a cylinder and a rectangular prism?
A cylinder has a circular cross section, a rectangular prism has a rectangular cross section.
How is the bases of a cylinder and a prism different?
The bases of cylinders are circular whereas the bases of prisms are polygons.
Why is a cylinder not called a circular prism?
It is easier to say and shorter to write. Both terms are correct though.
What form the bases of a prism?
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 circular bases triangular prism?
None. By definition, a triangular prism has triangular bases. If it had circular bases it would be a circular prism (cylinder).
How many edges does a circular prism have?
There is no such thing as a circular prism you're probably thinking of a cylinder or a cube

What is circular prism?
A circular prism, also known as a cylindrical prism, is a three-dimensional geometric shape with two parallel circular bases connected by a curved surface. The sides of the prism are perpendicular to the bases, and its cross-section is constant along its height. Common examples include cylinders, which can be used in various applications such as pipes or storage tanks. The volume and surface area of a circular prism can be calculated using specific mathematical formulas.
