Triangular Prism on the Basis of Uniformity
On the basis of uniformity, the triangular prism is divided into two:
- Regular triangular Prism
- Irregular triangular Prism
Regular Triangular Prism
A regular triangular prism is a three-dimensional shape where both triangular bases are regular triangles.
A regular triangle is a type of triangle where all sides are equal, and the angles between these sides measure 60°. Also, the lateral faces, or the sides, of the regular triangular prism take the form of rectangles.
Irregular Triangular Prism
An irregular triangular prism is a three-dimensional figure that deviates from this regularity.
In an irregular triangular prism, at least one of the triangular bases is not an equilateral triangle. This means that the sides of the base triangle in an irregular triangular prism may have different lengths, and the angles between these sides are not fixed at 60°.
Triangular Prism
Triangular Prism is a three-dimensional geometric shape with two identical triangular faces connected by three rectangular faces. It is one of the classifications of prism. It is named a triangular prism because it has a triangle across its cross-section.
This article covers the meaning of prism and triangular prism, the properties of the prism, the formula of a triangular prism, and the net of a triangular prism. We will also see the types of triangular prism on the basis of uniformity and alignment and verify Euler’s rule for triangular prism.
