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.

How geometric pyramids and prisms are different?
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

No.
What is the main difference between a prism and a pyramid?
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).
What are the differences of rectangular prisms and square pyramids?
One difference is square pyramids have 4 triangular faces while rectangular prisms have none!
How is a net useful when finding the surface area of prisms and pyramids?
The surface area of prisms or pyramids are simply the total area of the corresponding nets.

How are pyramids and cones different than prisms and cylinders?
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.
