Yes. A polyhedron is a geometric shape with flat surfaces and straight edges, so a a pyramid with a rectangular base qualifies as a polyhedron.
It is however not a regular polyhedron, which would require all the faces to be the same shape and size. To change your pyramid to a regular polyhedron you'd have to turn it into a tetrahedron.

What polyhedron has 8 edges?
Octagon if you're talking polygon but a rectangular pyramid has 8 edges.
What are the flat surface on a pyramid cube or rectangular prism called?
faces every polyhedron has one
What are the polygons that form a polyhedron?
Any. You can have a triangular pyramid (tetrahedron), a rectangular one, a pentagonal one, and so on. Similarly, you can have a triangular prism, a rectangular prism, and so on.
What are three different geometric solids that have at least one rectangular face?
A polyhedron of 5 or more sides can always be found that has a rectangular face. So three shapes are:a pentahedron (rectangle based pyramid),a hexahedron (cuboid),a heptahedron (pentagonal pyramid).
Is the pyramid a polyhedron?
Yes.
Is a rectangular pyramid a polyhedron?
yea it is

What is the difference between a pyramid and rectanguler prism?
A rectangular prism is a polyhedron bounded by six rectangular faces. A pyramid is a generic term used to describe a polyhedron with a polygonal base and a number of triangles rising from that base to meet at an apex. A pyramid whose base is a polygon with n-sides (or vertices) has n+1 faces, n+1 vertices and 2n edges, where n ≥ 3.

Is the pyramid a polyhedron?
Yes.
Is a pymarid a polyhedron?
No, but a pyramid is.

no
Why is a pyramid a polyhedron?
A pyramid, as well as any other solid figure bounded by plane polygons or faces, is a polyhedron.
What do you call a pyramid with a rectangular base?
A rectangular pyramid.
Is a pyramid a polyhedra?
No. A pyramid is a polyhedron. Many pyramids are polyhedra.
