In geometry, a triangular prism or trigonal prism [1] is a prism with 2 triangular bases. If the edges pair with each triangle's vertex and if they are perpendicular to the base, it is a right triangular prism. A right triangular prism may be both semiregular and uniform. The triangular prism can be used in constructing another polyhedron.

It was first introduced by Hermann von Helmholtz in late 19th-century Germany as supportive evidence for his perceptual learning theory (Helmholtz, 1909/1962). [1]
The set Γ of all open intervals in forms a basis for the Euclidean topology on .. A non-empty family of subsets of a set X that is closed under finite intersections of two or more sets, which is called a π-system on X, is necessarily a base for a topology on X if and only if it covers X.
Three children were killed, and ten other people – eight of whom were children – were injured. Axel Rudakubana, a 17-year-old British citizen born in Cardiff to parents from Rwanda , was arrested at the scene and has been charged with three counts of murder, ten counts of attempted murder, and possession of a bladed article .
Yoked prism can move the image away from primary gaze without the need for a constant head tilt or turn. [1] Prism correction is measured in prism dioptres. A prescription that specifies prism correction will also specify the "base". The base is the thickest part of the lens and is opposite from the apex.
In a small-scale study, adults whose reading difficulties due to convergence insufficiency had been unsuccessfully addressed by convergence exercises, base-in prism glasses or strabismus surgery showed improved reading after botulinum toxin therapy, maintaining improved reading remaining also after six months.
