Equilateral means that all the sides are the same size. Therefore an equilateral prism is has all sides the same length. This also means that they have 3 equal 60 degree angles. The definition of prism is a solid figure whose bases or ends have the same size and shape and are parallel to one another, and each of whose sides is a parallelogram.
Equilateral prisms are commonly used to refract light. This refraction demonstrates that white light is a combination of all colours of the spectrum.

How do you calculate the surface area of an equalaterial trinuglar based prism?
To calculate the surface area of the equilateral triangular-based prism, you need to calculate the area of the equilateral triangle and all the other sides of the prism. The total area of all the phases will give the total surface are of an equilateral triangular based prism.
