What is a Prism?
A prism is a 3D solid with two identical ends (bases) and flat sides (lateral faces). The shape of the base defines the type of prism.

Pro Tips
Rectangular Prism: V = lwh
Triangular Prism: V = (1/2)bh × l
Surface area is the sum of the areas of all faces.

Fun Facts
"Optical prisms (made of glass) can disperse white light into its component colors (a rainbow) through refraction."
Formula: Volume = Base Area × Height
