subject: Basic Geometry Vertices [print this page] Basic Geometry gives the idea of all 2D shapes and 3D shapes. Geometry gives the basic properties of 2D shapes and 3D shapes. Geometry is a word comes from Greek. In geometry, we can calculate area, perimeter, volume, surface area, circumference using geometry properties. Each geometry shape has own properties and own figure. The basic 2D shapes are quadrilateral and polygons. The basic 3D shapes are cube, cuboid, sphere, cylinder, pyramid.
Vertices are corner points of basic geometry shapes. Using vertices of geometry shapes, we can form a complete geometry shape. Vertices are just a point such as (2,3) where 2 is a x coordinate and 3 is y coordinate. Singular form of vertices is called as Vertex.
