Among the listed words, monophony /məˈnɒfəni/ rhymes with cacophony /kæˈkɒfəni/ because it shares the stressed vowel /ɒ/ and the ending /fəni/. Symphony /ˈsɪmfəni/, euphony /ˈjuːfəni/, telephony /təˈlɛfəni/, and polyphony /pəˈlɪfəni/ share only the spelling suffix -phony; their stressed vowels differ, so they do not rhyme. Beware phony /ˈfəʊni/: despite the same suffix spelling, it is a lookalike, not a rhyme.
