pyramids are prisms.
* * * * *
Pyramids are not prisms nor are prisms pyramids.
A pyramid has one polygonal base. Each side of that polygon is connected to a triangle, whose third vertices meet at a point above the base of the pyramid.
A prism has two congruent polygonal bases that are parallel to one another. They are joined together by rectangles.
Both pyramids and prisms are three dimensional. Both of them have polygon faces. Another thing common about pyramids and prisms is that they have a base and faces.
They are both polyhedra.
the difference between a pyramid and prism (in geometry) is that a pyramid has one base and lateral faces that are triangles where prisms have two congruent bases and lateral faces that are parallelograms
true

what is the difference between a paramid and a prism
they are not sometimes prisms
i am not sure.
No.
Pyramids end in one vertex and prisms end in multiple vertices. E.g. Rectangular Prisms are like cubes( multiple vertices) and pyramids are like cones (one vertex).
One difference is square pyramids have 4 triangular faces while rectangular prisms have none!
The surface area of prisms or pyramids are simply the total area of the corresponding nets.
They are both polyhedra.

Pyramids only have square bases.Triangular prisms have triangle bases.Pyramids have triangle "faces".Triangular prisms have rectangular "faces".
Pyramids and cones have a pointed top (apex) while prisms and cylinders have flat tops. Pyramids and cones have a single base, while prisms have two parallel bases. Cones have a curved surface while pyramids have triangular faces.
