Four. Any less and it wouldn't be three dimensional-- it would be a polygon.

What are the flat sides of a polyhedron?
They are the faces of the polyhedron.
What is a polyhedron and a prism that has 2 bases are hexagons and other faces are rectangles?
No polyhedron has five sides as a pentagon and a hexagon has six sides
What is non-polyhedron?
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").
What is non polyhedron?
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
What polyhedron has 2 sets of parallel sides?
A tetrahedron
What is the most amount of faces a polyhedron can have?
Virtually, it can have any amount of faces, but the most technical polyhedron with the most sides is a dodecahedron which has 12 faces.
How many sides does a polyhedron have?
A polyhedron is a solid shape with many sides. The word "polyhedron" does not specify a number of sides.
What are the flat sides of a polyhedron?
They are the faces of the polyhedron.
What is the difference between a polyhedron and a non polyhedron?
A polyhedron is a closed figure with several (planar) sides, and all its sides are planar. 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.
A polyhedron with two congruent sides?
It is a polyhedron with two congruent sides: nothing more, nothing less.
What is the least amount of edges that a polyhedron may have?
6 edges 4 faces and 4 verticies
Why decahedron is not a regular polyhedron?
It is not a regular polyhedron because it has unequal sides
Do 20 equal sides form a polyhedron?
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.
What is a polyhedron and a prism that has 2 bases are hexagons and other faces are rectangles?
No polyhedron has five sides as a pentagon and a hexagon has six sides
What shapes go in the category of irregular polyhedra?
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.

What polyhedron has 5 equal sides?
If, by "sides" you mean faces, then the answer is a pentahedron.
What is the definition of polyhedron?
A polygon has many sides whereas a polyhedron has many faces as for example a pyramid
