What is a triangular prism?

It's a shape made by wrapping two triangles with parallel faces as the top and bottom faces. A triangular prism, also known as a triangular polyhedron, is a polyhedron that has a triangle base and rectangles as the lateral faces.

How many edges does a triangular prism have?

A triangular prism is composed of 9 edges. Three each form the bottom and top faces. The rest forms the lateral faces.

How many faces do a triangular prism have?

Triangular prisms have five faces: a top and base face and three lateral faces.

How many vertices do a triangular prism have?

A triangular prism contains six vertices. That is three on each side of the triangular faces.

What is a prism?

It is a solid object that you can rely on:
  • Two identical bases
  • Three rectangular faces (right prism) or parallelogram form (oblique prism).
  • The same cross-section throughout its entire length
  • The term triangular prism describes the right triangular lens. This is a widespread practice.

    Formulas for triangular prisms

    The triangular prism volume (or its surface area) is usually what you need to calculate. These are the two most fundamental equations:
  • volume = 0.5 * b * h * length
  • b: length of the base of the triangle
    h: height of the triangle
    length: prism length
  • area = length * ( a + b + c ) + (2 * base area)
  • a, b, c: sides of the triangle
    base area: triangular base area

    The surface area of the triangular prism

    The most popular formula for calculating the surface area of a solid is the one that takes three sides of a triangular base.
    area = length * ( a + b + c ) + ( 2 * base area ) = length * base perimeter + ( 2 * base area)
