A polyhedron is a geometric shape which in mathematics is defined by three related meanings.
In the traditional meaning it is a 3-dimensional polytope, and in a newer meaning that exists alongside the older one it is a bounded or unbounded generalization of a polytope of any dimension.
Further generalizing the latter, there are topological polyhedra.
Many polyhedra are highly symmetric..
