A pentagonal prism is a prism with a pentagonal base. This makes it the cartesian product of a pentagon and a line segment. It is also the truncated pentagonal hosohedron, and because of this has pentagonal prismatic symmetry (D5h). The Bowers acronym for a pentagonal prism is pip.

- In geometry, the pentagonal prism is a prism with a pentagonal base. It is a type of heptahedron. If faces are all regular, the pentagonal prism is a semiregular polyhedron, and the third in an infinite set of prisms formed by square sides and two regular polygon caps. A pentagonal prism has 7 faces, and 10 vertices, and 15 edges. As in most prisms, the volume is found by taking the area of the base, with a side length of a, and multiplying it by the height h.
