A cone does not have a vertex. A vertex is defined as a point where two lines meet; a triangle has three vertices, and the angular face of a pyramid has a vertex. However, a cone is a three-dimensional figure and has a curved surface. The base of a cone is circular. The top of the cone is a single point called the apex of the cone.

But this is not a wholly satisfactory answer since it should no longer be the apex when the cone is turned upside down. An apex, by definition, is the topmost point.

Does a cone have vertex?
Yes, the point on the cone is a vertex.Typical math textbooks define a cone as "A solid figure with one circular face and one vertex." So yes, there is one vertex.
Does a cone have an apex?
Yes, a cone has an apex. To be precise, it is the point at the tip of the cone. This is also called the vertex of the cone.
Two nappes of a right circular cone meet at a point called the?
Two nappes of a right circular cone meet at a point called the vertex.
What is the top view of a cone called?
The top of a cone, seen from the outside of the cone, is called the vertex, also referred to as the externalpoint.The vertex is the point of intersection of the lines, or generators, of the cone and the plane base, in this case a circle. But if you just call it the point, everyone will know what you mean.This is referring to what we all think of when we hear the term, cone: a right circular cone. There are other types of cone, but probably not of interest here.
How many vertices does a cone has?
A cone has one vertex.
What is the point at the end of the cone called?
An Apex or Vertex of the cone
Is the point of a cone called vertex?
Yes.
Does a cone have two vertex?
No, a cone has one vertex.
What has one circular face and a curved surface that comes to a point called the vertex?
it is a three dimensional cone , the circle is the edge of the figure and the curved side is the body of the cone, the vertex is the point of the cone
Does a cone have one vertex?
Yes, a cone has 1 vertex. Where? At the bottom where it connects at the point.
What is a solid figure with only one vertex called?
A cone, possibly.
Why does a cone have 1 vertex?
A cone only has 1 vertex because it only has one point where it connects. (vertex=a point)
Does a cone have vertex?

Does a cone have an apex?
Yes, a cone has an apex. To be precise, it is the point at the tip of the cone. This is also called the vertex of the cone.
Is a point of a cone called vertex?
Yes, though the proper term is the apex.
What is the name of a shape with one face that is a circle and one vertex?
It is called a cone.
What is the other name for vertex of a cone?
You could call the vertex, the apex, the tip, or the point of the cone.
