SOLUTION:

The lateral faces of a prism are always parallelograms and are usually rectangles. A prism is named by the shape of its base. So, a prism with a rectangular-shaped base is called a rectangular prism.

Are all lateral faces in prisms rectangles?

A rectangular prism is a three-dimensional shape, that has six faces

(two at the top and bottom and four are lateral faces).

All the faces of the prism are rectangular in shape.

CONCLUSION:

The final answer is TRUE
