A regular polyhedron is a solid made up of ______ faces. Fill in the blanks to make the statement true.

Solution:

Given, A regular polyhedron is a solid made up of ______ faces.

We have to fill in the blanks to make the statement true.

A solid is a polyhedron if it is made up of only polygonal faces, the faces meet at edges which are line segments and the edges meet at a point called vertex.

A polyhedron is regular if its faces are congruent regular polygons and the same number of faces meet at each vertex.

From the above definition,

It is clear that a regular polyhedron has the same number of faces which meet at each vertex.

In other words, a regular polyhedron is a three dimensional solid made up of congruent faces

Therefore, a regular polyhedron has congruent faces.
