Vertices

Vertices (plural of vertex) are the corner points of a shape. In geometry, vertices are where the edges of a shape meet. For example, a triangle has three vertices, a square has four vertices, and a cube has eight vertices.

Types of vertices

Vertices can be classified into two types:

Interior vertices: These are the vertices that lie inside a shape. For example, the corners of a square are interior vertices.
Boundary vertices: These are the vertices that lie on the boundary of a shape. For example, the corners of a square are also boundary vertices.

Study Guide for Vertices

Here are some key points to remember when studying vertices:

Vertices are the corner points of a shape.
They are where the edges of a shape meet.
Different shapes have different numbers of vertices (e.g., triangle, square, cube).
Vertices can be classified as interior or boundary vertices.

Understanding vertices is important in geometry as it helps in identifying and describing the characteristics of different shapes.

Remember to practice identifying vertices in various shapes to reinforce your understanding of this concept.
