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.
A polyhedron.
tetrahedron
It's a cube.
octahedron
The flat surfaces of all polyhedra are called faces and a rectangular prism is simply one kind of polyhedron.
No. By definition a polyhedron has to have faces (flat surfaces), edges, and vertices. A sphere, hemisphere, and a cylinder are all solids but are not polyhedra.
It is a definitional requirement. If any face is not flat, then it is not a polyhedron.
Yes
A polyhedron.
A cube is a solid figure called a polyhedron. A polyhedron is a solid figure with all flat faces. So a cone would be a solid figure but not a polyhedron becasue it has a curve and does not have all flat faces.

A polyhedron.
a 3d object made of 2d faces with all flat sides
No because a polygon is a plane figure. A football is a bit like a polyhedron, but all the faces of a polyhedron must be flat and, because of inflation, those of a football are not.
An eight-face polyhedron is called an octahedron.
What polyhedron has eight sides and all of the are equilateral triangle?
