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
