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 eight triangular faces.
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 ...
The remaining hexagonal prisms are projected to 12 non-regular hexagonal prism images, lying where a cube's edges would be. Each image corresponds to two cells. Finally, the 8 volumes between the hexagonal faces of the projection envelope and the hexagonal faces of the central truncated cuboctahedron are the images of the 16 truncated octahedra ...
The great disnub dirhombidodecahedron has 240 of its 360 edges coinciding in space in 120 pairs. Because of this edge-degeneracy, it is not always considered to be a uniform polyhedron. Because of this edge-degeneracy, it is not always considered to be a uniform polyhedron.
Prism: A polyhedron comprising an n-sided polygonal base, a second base which is a translated copy (rigidly moved without rotation) of the first, and n other faces (necessarily all parallelograms) joining corresponding sides of the two bases hexagonal prism: Antiprism
The augmented hexagonal prism is constructed by attaching one equilateral square pyramid onto the square face of a hexagonal prism, a process known as augmentation. [1] This construction involves the removal of the prism square face and replacing it with the square pyramid, so that there are eleven faces: four equilateral triangles, five squares, and two regular hexagons.

A hexagonal antiprismatic prism or hexagonal antiduoprism is a convex uniform 4-polytope. It is formed as two parallel hexagonal antiprisms connected by cubes and triangular prisms. The symmetry of a hexagonal antiprismatic prism is [12,2 +,2], order 48. It has 24 triangle, 24 square and 4 hexagon faces. It has 60 edges, and 24 vertices.
In geometry, a convex polyhedron whose faces are regular polygons is known as a Johnson solid, or sometimes as a Johnson–Zalgaller solid. [1] Some authors exclude uniform polyhedra (in which all vertices are symmetric to each other) from the definition; uniform polyhedra include Platonic and Archimedean solids as well as prisms and antiprisms.
