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 a polyhedron with triangular sides and a polygonal base?
It can be any type of pyramid.
Why is a pyramid a polyhedron?
A pyramid, as well as any other solid figure bounded by plane polygons or faces, is a polyhedron.
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.
Which polyhedron has 5 triangular faces and a square base?
A square based pyramid.
What is the polygons that form a polyhedron?
Any polygon can be the base of a pyramid and so any polygon can form a polyhedron.
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 a polyhedron with triangular sides and a polygonal base?
It can be any type of pyramid.
Can polyhedron be the base of pyramid?
No, it cannot.
What is called a polyhedron with only one base?
pyramid .
A polyhedron with a base and sides that are triangles is a?
A Triangular Pyramid
What is a polyhedron that has a polygon for a base and triangles for sides?
pyramid
What is a polyhedron with 5 faces?
A Pyramid; Four sides and the base.
What are the example of a pyramid?
A polyhedron with a polygonal base and triangles for sides.
Why is a pyramid a polyhedron?

What is a polyhedron in which one face can be any polygon and the lateral faces are triangles that meet at a common vertex?
A pyramid has a polygonal base with all other sides being triangles. As the Egyptians famously demonstrated, a common pyramid has a square base with four triangles meeting at a vertex, but any polygon - regular or irregular - can be used as the base of such a polyhedron.
