well in order to answer this you must first understand what a polyhedron is

OpenStudy (eyust707):

do you know what a polyhedron is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a solid with flat faces?

OpenStudy (eyust707):

yes basically.. althouh i think the most important part to understand is that all the faces are polygons

OpenStudy (eyust707):

there cant be any rounded edges

OpenStudy (eyust707):

are all the faces of this shape polygons?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (eyust707):

so that means that it is definately a polyhedron

OpenStudy (eyust707):

but they are asking about a regular one

OpenStudy (eyust707):

so a regular polyhedron is a polyhedron that has faces that are all identical to each other

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh, so its definitely a regular polygon because all the faces are the same.

OpenStudy (eyust707):

correct!
