Tetrahedron



A tetrahedron is a polyhedron with four triangular faces. It is determined by four points (the vertices) that are not all in the same plane. A regular tetrahedron is one where all of the faces are congruent equilateral triangles.



A tetrahedron is the same as a pyramid with a triangular base.
