A regular octahedron is one of the platonic solids. Each of its faces is an equilateral triangle.
octahedron
Only if it is a regular tetrahedron, regular octahedron, or regular icosahedron. All other geodesics have isosceles triangle faces, not equilateral triangles.
A solid with 8 faces is an octahedron.As all faces are the same it is a regular octahedron.As such it is one of the five platonic solids - the only five 3D objects that can be regular: the tetrahedron (4 equilateral triangles for the faces), the hexahedron (usually called a cube with 6 square faces), the octahedron (as asked, 8 equilateral triangles for the faces), dodecahedron (12 regular pentagons as faces), icosahedron (20 equilateral triangles as faces).

Octahedron.
Their faces are equilateral triangles.
Equilateral triangles
Only if it is a regular tetrahedron, regular octahedron, or regular icosahedron. All other geodesics have isosceles triangle faces, not equilateral triangles.

Octahedron- A polyhedron with eight faces. All faces of a regular octahedron are congruent, equilateral triangles.
