SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the geometric interpretation of a triangular prism described as "an infinite (right angles) triangular prism." The confusion arises from the phrase "infinite right angles," which is clarified to mean that one side of the prism extends infinitely. This distinction is crucial for understanding the geometric properties and implications of such a shape in mathematical contexts.

It doesn't say "with infinite right angles". It says "an infinite (right angles) triangular prism". It is one side of it that has infinite length.
