In geometry, a vertex (plural vertices) is a special kind of point that describes the corners or intersections of geometric shapes.
In math and geometry, a *vertex* -- the plural of vertex is vertices -- is a point where two straight lines or edges intersect. **In other words, a vertex is a mathematical word for a corner.** Most geometrical shapes, whether two or three dimensional, possess vertices. For instance, a square has four vertices, which are its four corners.
