 Polyhedra Module
 ================
 
-.. py:class:: Polyhedron
+Polyhedron class allows users to build and inspect polyherons. Polyhedron inherits all methods from the :class:`Domain` class.

-To create a polyhedron, the user must use the folloing functions to define  equalities and inequalities as the contraints.
+To create a polyhedron, the user can use the following functions to define  equalities and inequalities as the constraints.
 
 .. py:function:: Eq(left, right)
 
-   Create a constraint by setting *left* equal to *right*.
+   Returns a Polyhedron instance with a single constraint as *left* equal to *right*.
 
 .. py:function:: Ne(left, right)
 
-    Create a constraint by setting *left* not equal to *right*.
+   Returns a Polyhedron instance with a single constraint as *left* not equal to *right*.
 
 .. py:function:: Lt(left, right)
 
-   Create a constraint by setting *left* less than *right*.
+   Returns a Polyhedron instance with a single constraint as *left* less than *right*.
 
 .. py:function:: Le(left, right)
 
-   Create a constraint by setting *left* less than or equal to *right*.
+   Returns a Polyhedron instance with a single constraint as *left* less than or equal to *right*.
 
 .. py:function:: Gt(left, right)
 
-   Create a constraint by setting *left* greater than *right*.
+   Returns a Polyhedron instance with a single constraint as *left* greater than *right*.
 
 .. py:function:: Ge(left, right)
 
-   Create a constraint by setting *left* greater than or equal to *right*.
+   Returns a Polyhedron instance with a single constraint as *left* greater than or equal to *right*.
