What do we call a point where two or more edges of a geometric figure meet?

Show answer

Vertex

A vertex is the corner point where lines or curves intersect, such as the corners of a cube or the tip of a cone. The plural form is 'vertices,' and in 3D shapes, they are the specific points where three or more faces meet. A helpful tip is to look at the letter 'V' in the word, which itself forms a vertex at its base.
