Is a pentagon based pyramid a polyhedron?
Yes because polyhedron means many faces
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 the definition of a pentagonal pyramid?
It is a polyhedron with a pentagonal base. To every side of the pentagon are attached triangles that meet at a single point in a plane higher than the pentagon (if it is a skew pyramid, the apex will not be above the pentagon).
Are all pyramids polyhedrons?
no not all pyramids are polyhedron because each pyramid has a different shape. so no each pyramid is not a polyhedron * * * * * Yes they are.
What shape has face's edge's vertexes?
A polyhedron as for example a pyramid

What shape has 5 vertices?
a square pyramid
Can any polyhedrons can be the base of a pyramid?
No, the base of a pyramid must be a 2-dimensional shape so no polyhedron can be its base.
What is the name of a five sided object?
Pentagon 2d shape is a pentagon 3d object is a pyramid.
What is the name of a polyhedron that has 5 sides?
A polyhedron with 5 faces could be called a pentahedron, but a more common name would be a quadrilateral pyramid. A square pyramid is a special case of such a shape.
What shape has 5 vertices and 5 faces?
A pentagon has 5 edges. Shaped a bit like a muffin cake. e.g: http://www.taospaint.com/Construct/pentagon.gif
What shape has 1 pentagon and 5 triangles face?
a pentagonal pyramid
What shape is the base of a pentagonal pyramid?
The base would be a pentagon, while the faces would be triangles.
