Does a tetrahedron have parrallel faces?

No. The faces of a tetrahedron are equilateral triangles, but none of the faces is parallel to another one of the faces -- they could not be parallel, since by the definition of a tetrahedron, all the faces intersect(!) and parallel planes do not intersect.

Does a tetrahedron have any right angles?

No. A right angle would be 90 degrees; a tetrahedron is composed of four equilateral triangles, which by definition have equal angles of 60 degrees apiece.* * * * *Wrong!A tetrahedron is a solid shape enclosed by any four triangles. Only a regular tetrahedron that requires equilateral triangles. So an ordinary tetrahedron can have right angles - up to 3 of them at one vertex.
