Prism Properties and Calculations

The video tutorial explains how to calculate the number of faces, vertices, and edges for any prism using the number of sides of its congruent polygon. The formulae are: faces = n + 2, vertices = n * 2, and edges = n * 3. Examples include triangular, square, rectangular, and pentagonal prisms, demonstrating the application of these formulae.
