It is Greek for "having many bases".
In geometry, a polyhedron is a three-dimensional solid formed from flat planar faces with straight edges. For a regularpolyhedron, each side has the same shape and dimensions.
The Greek word for polyhedron is "πολύεδρον" (polýedron), derived from "πολύς" (polús), meaning "many," and "ἔδρον" (édron), meaning "face." In geometry, a polyhedron is defined as a three-dimensional solid with flat polygonal faces, straight edges, and vertices. The term reflects the structure's characteristic of having multiple faces.
the concept of a regular polyhedron remained as developed by the ancient Greek mathematicians
A one-hundred sided polyhedron is called a hecatohedron, comming from the Greek Hecto- meaning one-hundred and -hedronmeaning a three-dimensional figure.
If you mean a decahedron then it is a polyhedron with 10 faces
A shape with a lot of sides and angles.
Poly = manyHedron = corner (in 3-d space) So a polyhedron is a 3-d shape having many vertices (solid angles). The plural of polyhedron is polyhedra.
Because the Greek word polyhedron means many faces and the Greek word polygon means many sides
If, by "sides" you mean faces, then the answer is a pentahedron.
No, they are the faces of the polyhedron.
The definition of polyhedron. If it was not faceted it would not be a polyhedron.
If a solid, it is called a "Polyhedron". If just lines in three dimensions, its called a "Three Dimensional Polygon". Polyhedron derives from Greek words for "many faced" or "many sided". Polygon derives from "many angles"
A solid figure with many sides such as a pyramid
