The pentagonal prism is a prism having two pentagonal bases
and five rectangular sides. It is a heptahedron.
The regular right pentagonal prism is uniform polyhedron 
. Its dual
polyhedron is the pentagonal dipyramid.
A (possibly nonregular) pentagonal prism is the convex hull of the pentagrammic antiprism,
pentagrammic prism, and pentagrammic
crossed antiprism.
The dual polyhedron of the regular pentagonal
prism is the canonical pentagonal dipyramid.
The surface area and volume
for the right regular pentagonal prism of unit edge length are
