My friend helped me with my assignment. I was having a bit of trouble and he showed me what he did.
The assignment was a speech with a powerpoint in the background. I did not receive any help in the speech and it was all my own work but 2 of my slides are similar to his, and I copied his table. The speech is the part directly getting assessed while the powerpoint is merely for the theatrics. This was all done with his permission and he himself showed me how he did the slides. The powerpoint was 12 slides long, does this constitute plagiarism?

My friend helped me with my assignment...I copied his table...does this constitute plagiarism?
Yes: You copied his work, doing so without attribution is plagiarism.

But if you put a notation at the bottom: "Table from <name>" then it is not plagiarism.

Whether it is plagiarism or not, and it is, may be less important than the bigger issue that it is almost certainly academic misconduct. Only your professor can give you advice on whether it is acceptable.
Getting some help may be fine, depending on the rules. Copying a table is less fine and becomes plagiarism if done without attribution. I would disallow it if I learn of it and would encourage you to do better. Since you are a student, I would even discourage your use of "similar" slides since you learn more by working independently and that is the point of the exercise.
The proportion of the copying makes no difference. I assume that you didn't reference your friend in the slide deck, making it plagiarism. I suspect that you think it is probably wrong to do this if you didn't cite the work of your friend.
Don't lose track of the lesson that learning is the real objective, not the production of any artifact.
