We don't know for certain who discovered the platonic solids first. However, Pythagoras is credited by some sources as discovering the platonic solids first. Other sources credit Theaetetus as being the first to describe all five platonic solids and proving that these are the *only* platonic solids.

There are different numbers on the different platonic solids.
The five platonic solids.
The Platonic solids were name after the Greek philosopher Plato, who theorized that the classical elements were constructed from the regular solids.
False
Not all pyramids are classified as Platonic solids. Platonic solids are specific three-dimensional shapes that are convex, have identical faces made of regular polygons, and the same number of faces meeting at each vertex. The five Platonic solids are the tetrahedron, cube, octahedron, dodecahedron, and icosahedron. While some pyramids, like a square pyramid, can have regular polygonal bases, they do not meet the criteria to be considered Platonic solids due to their varying face shapes and arrangements.
