Final answer:

A pyramid is the solid that consists of a polygon as its base, a point not in the same plane as the base, and shares all points between them.

Step-by-step explanation:

The solid that consists of a polygon, a point not in the same plane as the polygon, and shares all points between them is a pyramid.

A pyramid is a three-dimensional solid shape with a polygon as its base and a point called the apex that is not in the same plane as the base. All the points between the base and the apex are connected by triangular faces.

For example, a square pyramid has a square as its base and four triangular faces that meet at the apex.
