A polyhedron (plural polyhedra or polyhedrons) is often defined as a geometric object with flat faces and straight edges (the word polyhedron comes from the Classical Greek ÏÎ¿Î»ÏÎµÎ´ÏÎ¿Î½, from poly- , stem of ÏÎ¿Î»ÏÏ, many, + -edron, form of ÎµÎ´ÏÎ¿Î½, base, seat, or face). polyhedron is any three-dimensional figure with flat surfaces that are polygons. Specifically, any geometric shape existing in three-dimensions and having flat faces, each existing in two-dimensions, which intersect at straight, linear edges.
