A twisted prism is a nonconvex polyhedron constructed from a uniform n-prism with each side face bisected on the square diagonal, by twisting the top, usually by π / n radians ( 180 / n degrees) in the same direction, causing sides to be concave.
By definition, this makes it a right rectangular prism. Rectangular cuboids may be referred to colloquially as "boxes" (after the physical object). If two opposite faces become squares, the resulting one may obtain another special case of rectangular prism, known as square rectangular cuboid.
The gyroelongated square pyramid is a Johnson solid (specifically, J 10) constructed by augmenting one a square pyramid. Similarly, the gyroelongated square bipyramid ( J 17 ) is a deltahedron (a polyhedron whose faces are all equilateral triangles ) constructed by replacing both squares of a square antiprism with a square pyramid.
For example, triaugmented triangular prism is a composite polyhedron since it can be constructed by attaching three equilateral square pyramids onto the square faces of a triangular prism; the square pyramids and the triangular prism are elementary. [25] A canonical polyhedron

Like other cuboids, every face of a cube has four vertices, each of which connects with three congruent lines. These edges form square faces, making the dihedral angle of a cube between every two adjacent squares being the interior angle of a square, 90°. Hence, the cube has six faces, twelve edges, and eight vertices.
