Imagine a pyramid, with a triangle shaped base, with three sides coming up each of which is a triangle. That is a tetrahedron (4 sides, all the same side, with each one the shape of a triangle).

Mostly correct, but the four faces need not all be the same.

What des a 3-dimensional tetrahedron look like?
A tetrahedron is 3-dimensional and so it looks just like an ordinary tetrahedron.
Which 2D shapes will be required to make the net of a triangular pyramid?
It will look like a 2D equilateral triangle if it is a triangular based pyramid which is called a tetrahedron.
What is a 3D shape that is a tetrahedron?
Well, a tetrahedron has four sides. A regular tetrahedron is a triangular pyramid.
What is a plane face tetrahedron?
A tetrahedron must be plane faced and so, it is just an ordinary tetrahedron.
How many vertices ar ethere in a tetrahedron?
"Vertices" means corners. "Tetra" means four and "hedron" means side, so a tetrahedron is a four sided object. A tetrahedron looks like pyramid. Each side is a triangle. The bottom of a tetrahedron is a triangle, and a tetrahedron goes up to a point at the top. The three corners of the triangle at the bottom plus the point at the top gives you a total of four corners.

What does silicon tetrahedron look like?
It doesn't "look like" anything, because it's far too small to interact much with visible light. The overall shape is, well, a tetrahedron. If you don't know what a tetrahedron is, think about what a pyramid would look like if it had a triangular base instead of a square one and you'll be pretty close.
What does a octahedron look like?
