Looking at the illustration, we see that the top and bottom sides of the polyhedron are polygons, and its vertexes are joined by straight lines.

Additionally, the top and the bottom sides are parallel. Using this information, we can conclude that the polyhedron is a prism, defined as the polyhedron whose top and bottom sides are equal, and parallel rectilinear figures.
