No. A polyhedron is a three dimensional body. The base of a pyramid is a two dimensional figure.

But any non self-intersecting polygon can be the base of a pyramid.

Is a rectangular pyramid is a polyhedron?

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 is a polyhedron with a polygon base and triangular sides that allmeet at a common vertex?

A polyhedron with a polygon base and triangular sides that all meet at a common vertex is known as a pyramid. The base can be any polygon, such as a triangle, square, or pentagon, and the triangular sides are called lateral faces. The vertex where all the triangular faces converge is referred to as the apex of the pyramid. Each type of pyramid is named based on the shape of its base, such as a triangular pyramid or a square pyramid.
