The faces of Platonic solids are regular polygons...
What do you call a polyhedron with faces that are all congruent regular polygons?
Its a platonic solid :)
What are the three type of polygons that can be a platonic solid?
Equilateral triangles, squares, regular pentagons.
What polygon can be a face of a Platonic solid?
A triangle, square or pentagon.
Other than squares the polygon that can be the face of a platonic solid are and?
triangles and pentagons
Is a cylinder a platonic solid?
No. All the faces of a Platonic solid are identical regular polygons.

What type of geometric solid has two congruent polygons for bases?
Platonic

What is meant by the word face in terms of platonic solid?
A platonic solid is a special kind of polyhedron. A polyhedron is a 3-D figure whose faces are polygons.In a platonic solid all faces are identical regular polygons. A polyhedron has faces, edges, and vertices. The numbers of each are related by Euler's formula, V+F=E+2

Equilateral triangles, squares, regular pentagons.
What is the definition of a platonic solid?
From Wikipedia:A Platonic solid is a convex polyhedron that is regular, in the sense of a regular polygon. Specifically, the faces of a Platonic solid are congruent regular polygons, with the same number of faces meeting at each vertex. Moreover, all its edges are congruent, as are its vertices and angles.
Why isn't a cubeoid a platonic solid?
Quite simply, it doesn't fulfill the requirements for a "platonic solid", which include the requirement that all bounding areas must be regular polygons. A square is a regular polygon; a rectangle is not.
What are the three types of polygons that can be faces of a platonic solid?
triangles, squares and pentagons.
What polygon can be a face of a Platonic solid?
A triangle, square or pentagon.
What are the three types of polygons that can be the faces of a Platonic solid?
The polygons are the equilateral triangle, the square, and the regular pentagon. The faces of these platonic solids are made from the following polygons: tetrahedron - 4 triangles cube - 6 squares octahedron - 8 triangles dodecahedron - 12 pentagons icosahedron - 20 triangles
