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.
