Here’s the breakdown for both 3D shapes:

Triangular Prism

• Faces: 5 (2 triangular + 3 rectangular)
• Edges: 9
• Vertices: 6

Square-based Pyramid

• Faces: 5 (1 square + 4 triangular)
• Edges: 8
• Vertices: 5

Tip:

To verify the number of faces, edges, and vertices, use Euler’s formula for polyhedra:
$V - E + F = 2$
where $V$ = vertices, $E$ = edges, and $F$ = faces.
