Prism
A prism is a polyhedron (having five or more faces) with two parallel and congruent polygonal bases, so that
all cross-sections taken parallel to the bases are also congruent with the bases, thus all lateral faces (sides)
are parallelograms.
Lateral faces meet in line segments called lateral edges.
A right prism is one whose lateral faces and lateral edges are perpendicular to its bases. The lateral faces of
a right prism are all rectangles, and the height of a right prism is equal to the length of its lateral edge.
A regular prism has regular polygons as bases. A regular polygon is one that has all sides equal in length
and all angles equal in measure.
Thus, a right regular prism is one with regular polygon bases and perpendicular rectangular lateral sides.
 S = 2B + Slat  - surface of a prism
    Slat = P ·  - lateral surface
 V = B ·  - volume of a prism
 B -area of base,  P - perimeter of base,  h -height of a prism

Rectangular prism or rectangular parallelepiped (cuboid)
A solid of which the six faces are mutually perpendicular rectangles is called a rectangular parallelepiped or a
rectangular prism.

Right triangular prism
A right triangular prism is made of two triangular bases and three rectangular faces with lateral edges
perpendicular to the bases.

Pyramid
A solid whose base is a polygon and whose lateral faces are triangles with a common vertex (apex) is called 
a pyramid.
A right pyramid is a pyramid in which the line joining the centroid of the base (the point of coincidence of the
medians) and the apex is perpendicular to the base.
A regular pyramid is a right pyramid whose base is a regular polygon and lateral faces are congruent
isosceles triangles.
The volume of a pyramid is one third of the product of the area of the base and the perpendicular distance
from the vertex to the base.
The surface area of a pyramid: S = B + Slat
The volume of a pyramid: V = 1/3 · B · h,
where B is the base area,  Slat  is the lateral surface area and h is the height of the pyramid.

A regular square pyramid has square base and lateral faces are four congruent isosceles triangles making the
same angle with the base.
