Answer 1

Answer:

The two bases of a rectangular prism are rectangles, while the two bases of a triangular prism are triangles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Any prism has two bases.  Since we are talking about a rectangular prism and a triangular prism both must have two bases.

For example, a square prism has two bases and they are both square.

In this case a rectangular prism has two bases that are rectangles and a triangular prism also has two bases and both bases are triangles.

Note: For the figure to have only one base it must be called a pyramid.

Thus, the answer is:

The two bases of a rectangular prism are rectangles, while the two bases of a triangular prism are triangles
