Count vertices, edges and faces

Key notes :-

1. Vertices

• A vertex is a corner where edges meet.
• If you touch a corner of a box, you are touching a vertex.
• More than one vertex is called vertices.
  🟢 Example: A cube has 8 vertices.

---

2. Edges

• An edge is a line where two faces meet.
• It is like the side of a shape.
  🟢 Example: A cube has 12 edges.

---

3. Faces

• A face is a flat surface of a 3D shape.
• You can place your hand flat on a face.
  🟢 Example: A cube has 6 faces.

🧱 Examples of 3D Shapes

Shape	Vertices	Edges	Faces
Cube	8	12	6
Rectangular Prism	8	12	6
Pyramid (square base)	5	8	5
Cylinder	0	2	3
Cone	1	1	2
Sphere	0	0	1

🎯 Fun Tips to Remember

• Corners = Vertices
• Lines = Edges
• Flat parts = Faces
