The number of corners (or vertices) of a pyramid depends upon the shape of the base of the pyramid; a pyramid has one more corner than the number of sides in the base, eg a triangular based pyramid (also known as a tetrahedron) has 3 + 1 = 4 corners, a square based pyramid has 4 + 1 = 5 corners.

A cone has 1 corner (at the top, or apex).

So together a pyramid and cone have 2 more corners than number of sides of the shape of the base of the pyramid.
