False. Cylinders and cones are not just polyhedrons with circular bases.

Answer:

No, A cone is not a polyhedron with a circular base.

Explanation:

A polyhedron is a solid, three-dimensional shape that has flat faces.

The faces of a polygon are polygons, which means they have straight sides.

Example-Pyramid.

No, cone is not a polyhedron since cone has curved surface and not flat faces.

Though cone is a 3-dimensional figure with circular base and slant height meeting at the vertex.
