A polyhedron is a three-dimensional figure formed by flat surfaces that are bounded by polygons joining along their sides (the faces of the polyhedron).
A circle is not a polygon, but we can say that a circle is the limit of a regular polygon with n sides. It means that if n becomes larger and larger, the polygon shape approaches to a circle. A circle is a two dimensional figure as a polygon is, but a three dimensional figure whose base(s) is/are a circle cannot be called a polyhedron.

A polyhedron
Is a sphere a polyhedron?
No, a sphere is not a polyhedron.A polyhedron is a three-dimensional geometric figure whose sides are polygons.A regular polyhedron is a polyhedron whose faces are all congruent regular polygons.
What is the difference between polygons and polyhedrons?
A polygon is a flat figure, like a square. A polyhedron is a 3D figure, like a cube.
What is a three-dimensional figure whose surfaces are polygons?
