From http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=polyhedronpolyhedron1570, from Gk. polyedron, neut. of adj. polyedros"having many bases or sides," from polys "many" (see poly-) + hedra "seat, base, chair, face of a geometric solid," from PIE base *sed- "to sit" (see sedentary).
So, they are many sided geometric solids.
No. Polyhedrons are any shape with multiple sides. A triangle and a prism are just two different kinds of polyhedrons.

Polyhedrons are defined as three-dimensional shapes with flat polygonal faces, straight edges, and vertices. Therefore, objects that do not meet these criteria, such as spheres, cylinders, and cones, are not considered polyhedrons. Additionally, shapes with curved surfaces or those that are not fully enclosed do not qualify as polyhedrons.
They are 3 dimensional objects such a s polyhedrons.
No, those bounded by only plane faces are but others are not.

not all, but some
tetrahedrons
All polyhedrons.
No. Not even all hexahedrons are cubes.
A prism is a polyhedron.

To study solid objects whose faces are all polygons.
