C
A square prism has square oppposite faces and either rectangular or square lateral faces. Hence, it is also known as either cuboid or cube.

C
Sphere doesn’t have any vertices and flat faces. The surface of the sphere is completely curved.

B and C
A polyhedron is a three-dimensional solid figure in which each side is a flat surface. These flat surfaces are polygons and are joined at their edges. Since cylinder and cone are the solids that have curved surfaces, they are called non-polyhedrons. On the other hand, cube and prism are polyhedrons.

A
In the above figure, l is the slant height, h is the height and r is the radius. h and r are perpendicular to each other. So, h r and l forms a right angled triangle.
When we rotate the triangle about one of its perpendicular sides, then the shape obtained will be a cone as illustrated in the figure.
