| prism | a polyhedron with two congruent faces that lie in parallel planes, where the other faces are parallelograms. |
| bases | congruent faces that lie in parallel planes |
| lateral faces | parallelograms formed by connecting th ecorreesponding vertices of bases in a prism. |
| right prism | a prism where each lateral edge is perpendicular to both bases. |
| oblique prisms | Prisms that have lateral edges that are not perpendicular to the bases. |
| surface area of a polyhedron | The sum of the areas of the faces. |

| net | The two-dimensional representation of all of a prism's faces. |
| cylinder | A solid with congruent circular bases that lie in parallel planes. |
| right cylinder | A cylinder where the segment joining the centers of the bases is perpendicular to the bases. |
| lateral area of a cylinder | The area of a cylinder's curved surface and equal to the product of the circumference and the height. |

| circular cone | This has a circular base and a vertex that is not in the same plane as the base. |
| right cone | The height meets the base at its center |
| slant height of a right cone | The distance between the vertex and a point on the base edge |
| lateral surface of a cone | all segments that connect the vertex with points on the base edge |
