  2. Prism (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_(geometry)

    An oblique prism is a prism in which the joining edges and faces are not perpendicular to the base faces. Example: a parallelepiped is an oblique prism whose base is a parallelogram, or equivalently a polyhedron with six parallelogram faces. Right Prism. A right prism is a prism in which the joining edges and faces are perpendicular to the base ...

  3. Hexagonal prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexagonal_prism

    3D model of a uniform hexagonal prism. In geometry, the hexagonal prism is a prism with hexagonal base. Prisms are polyhedrons; this polyhedron has 8 faces, 18 edges, and 12 vertices. [1] Since it has 8 faces, it is an octahedron. However, the term octahedron is primarily used to refer to the regular octahedron, which has

  4. Pentagonal prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentagonal_prism

    In geometry, the pentagonal prism is a prism with a pentagonal base. It is a type of heptahedron with seven faces , fifteen edges , and ten vertices . As a semiregular (or uniform) polyhedron

  5. Triangular prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangular_prism

    A triangular prism has 6 vertices, 9 edges, and 5 faces. Every prism has 2 congruent faces known as its bases, and the bases of a triangular prism are triangles. The triangle has 3 vertices, each of which pairs with another triangle's vertex, making up another 3 edges. These edges form 3 parallelograms as other faces. [2]

  6. Triaugmented triangular prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triaugmented_triangular_prism

    The dual polyhedron of the triaugmented triangular prism is an associahedron, a polyhedron with four quadrilateral faces and six pentagons whose vertices represent the 14 triangulations of a regular hexagon. In the same way, the nine vertices of the triaugmented triangular prism represent the nine diagonals of a hexagon, with two vertices ...

  7. Heptagonal prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heptagonal_prism

    3D model of a (uniform) heptagonal prism. In geometry , the heptagonal prism is a prism with heptagonal base. This polyhedron has 9 faces (2 bases and 7 sides), 21 edges, and 14 vertices.

  8. Triangular bipyramid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangular_bipyramid

    If the tetrahedra are regular, all edges of a triangular bipyramid are equal in length and form equilateral triangular faces. A polyhedron with only equilateral triangles as faces is called a deltahedron. There are eight convex deltahedra, one of which is a triangular bipyramid with regular polygonal faces. [1]

  9. Pentagrammic prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentagrammic_prism

    In geometry, the pentagrammic dipyramid (or bipyramid) is first of the infinite set of face-transitive star dipyramids containing star polygon arrangement of edges. It has 10 intersecting isosceles triangle faces. It is topologically identical to the pentagonal dipyramid. Each star dipyramid is the dual of a star polygon based uniform prism.
