What is a triangular prism?

Suppose you've got a triangle. Now, stretch it up so as to make a stack of triangles up above another. This new 3d object is called a triangular prism.

Usually, when we talk about a triangular prism, we talk about the triangular prism, whose stack goes straight up, thus, we talk about a right triangular prism.

Since a triangular prism is made up of 2 triangles and 3 rectangles. Also, a triangle has no diagonals while a rectangle has 2 diagonals. Therefore, the number of diagonals, the triangular prism will have is,

Number of diagonal

= Number of diagonals on triangles + Number of diagonals on rectangles

= (2×0) + (3×2)

= 6

Hence, the number of diagonals that the triangular prism will have is 6.
