With a figure 8 bridle you can use mostly any kind of english riding bit. I like to use full cheek snaffles , or dee-ring bits. Or just plain snaffles in general.
That is the correct spelling for "figure 8" which is more often used to describe the path or layout than the written version "figure eight" and adjective "figure-eight" (used for a type of knot and some other applications).

Figure eight bandages are bandages that are used with parts of the body. Often it will be used on an arm or leg. One part will be above the joint, and the other part of the bandage will be below the joint.

yes, it is.
the bridle is attached to the mouth......either of horses or a mule. it is actually used to control the direction to which the whole body moves
Halters are used to handle your horse on the ground. You attach lead ropes to halters. They do not have bits (the metal part of a bridle that goes in the horse's mouth). When you are riding, a bridle is used. It has a bit that goes in the horse's mouth to help control it. Also, the straps on a bridle are made to control a horse.
Multiply the figure in the sales column by 100, kind lad or lass.
A figure 8 simply keeps the horses mouth closed around the bit so it cannot evade the bit. Sometimes its used simply to keep a horses tongue in its mouth when the horse likes to stick it out. (Not kidding, there are horses that prefer to keep their tongue stuck out.) A flash noseband performs the same function but some people think a figure 8 is more comfortable for the horse. You can certainly use a martingale with a figure 8. If you use a standing martingale be sure to attach it to the part of the nose band that does not go below the bit. It must attach to the upper noseband.
