They are the faces of the polyhedron.
No polyhedron has five sides as a pentagon and a hexagon has six sides
A polyhedron has "many sides" (by definiton). The only 3-D shape which does not have "many sides" is a sphere (which technically only have one "side").
A non polyhedron does not have these properties, maybe it is not closed, maybe one or more of the sides is a curved surface. In some branches of topology the sides of a polyhedron cannot intersect each other.http://wiki.answers.com/What_is_the_difference_between_a_polyhedron_and_a_non_polyhedron#ixzz185DDOyd9
A tetrahedron
A polyhedron is a solid shape with many sides. The word "polyhedron" does not specify a number of sides.
They are the faces of the polyhedron.
A polyhedron is a three-dimensional solid with flat faces, straight edges, and sharp corners, while a non-polyhedron does not have these characteristics. Polyhedra are made up of polygons that enclose a single region of space, while non-polyhedra may have curved faces or intersecting edges. In mathematical terms, a polyhedron satisfies Euler's formula (V - E + F = 2), where V is the number of vertices, E is the number of edges, and F is the number of faces, while a non-polyhedron does not.
It is a polyhedron with two congruent sides: nothing more, nothing less.
It is not a regular polyhedron because it has unequal sides
No. A polyhedron is 3 dimensional. You have a regular polygon, regular because the sides are equal. If you asked about 20 surfaces, then it would be a polyhedron.

A polyhedron is a plane shape, enclosing a single space, which is bounded by straight lines.If ALL angles and ALL sides are equal, then it is a regular polyhedron. All other polyhedra are irregular.Note that if any of the sides is not straight then the shape is not a polyhedron at all, and so cannot be an irregular polyhedron.A polyhedron is a plane shape, enclosing a single space, which is bounded by straight lines.If ALL angles and ALL sides are equal, then it is a regular polyhedron.

If, by "sides" you mean faces, then the answer is a pentahedron.
A polygon has many sides whereas a polyhedron has many faces as for example a pyramid
What polyhedron has eight sides and all of the are equilateral triangle?
A polyhedron has "many sides" (by definiton). The only 3-D shape which does not have "many sides" is a sphere (which technically only have one "side").
