Sometimes. Any face can be defined as a base of a prism; but pyramids may have one face that is a base and not a triangle.
A prism is a polyhedron with two parallel bases bounded by congruent polygons and with lateral faces bounded by parallelograms that connect the corresponding sides of the bases. The height of a prism is any perpendicular line drawn from a point on one base to the other base. If the the bases' shape of a prism is a triangle, we call it a triangular prism (it has 3 faces). The surface area is the sum of the bases' area and the faces' area (lateral area).
It may be called a lateral face.
any right triangle with thickness
Multiply the length of the prism by the area of the triangular face. How you find the area of the triangular face will depend on what information you have about the triangle: 3 sides, 2 sides and the included angle, 1 side and 2 angles, base and vertical height or any of a number of other sets of data.
The lateral face for a prism or pyramid is any edge or face which is not part of a base.
Sometimes. Any face can be defined as a base of a prism; but pyramids may have one face that is a base and not a triangle.
The lateral area is the perimeter of the hexagon times the height (altitude length) of the prism. Same for any other prism.
not necessarily... it can be any triangle.

To find the SA of any prism, find the area of each face. (*Note: Depending on the shape of the face, there might be different formulas. Area of Square=length x length Area of Triangle=base x height divided by 2 Area of Trapezoid=A1+A2 (divide the trapezoid into two triangles and find the area of each triangle, then add them) ) After you find the areas of all the faces of the prism, add all the areas to get the SA.
True.
Infinitely many. Every possible triangle can be used to generate a triangular prism, and in each case, the prism can have any one of infinitely many lengths.
