A yield sign is shaped like an upside-down triangle.
it depends how many sides it has so, for e.g. if it is a octagon it would have 8 vertices because an octagon has 8 sides.
yield and look both ways
There are 5 sides on the Yield sign: Top side, left side, right side, front side, and back side. The sign face is triangular.
Let's identify first what a Yield sign is. The Yield sign is the only sign on the road (US) that is in the shape of a upside-down triangle with rounded corners, similarly to the stop sign, the stop sign is the only sign on the road that's in the shape of a octagon (has 8 sides). You'll usually see a Yield sign at an intersection, for instance traffic circles. You're not required to stop at the yield sign but you can if you have too to give way to traffic that doesn't have to stop period. Yield signs are not a sign that you blow through. The yield sign means that "You're not required to stop, but you don't have the right-of-way at this intersection." The yield sign is also less restrictive than the stop sign, you still have to give the right-of-way to other traffic, but you're not required to stop at a yield sign.
a stop sign has 5 more corners than a yield sisn
A stop sign has 5 more corners than a yield sign. stop sign-8 corners yield sign-3 corners 8-3=5

signs? or sides. If your question is how many sides does a stop sign have than the answer is 8. its a octagon

When American road signs were being conceived, a general concept was devised that the more sides a sign has, the more important its implication (circular signs, having "infinite" sides, are considered the most urgent). A triangle is used with the YIELD sign because it's meant primarily as a notice. It is the driver's responsibility to observe traffic and only proceed when it's clear, but the driver will not get in trouble for simply driving past a YIELD sign--only for causing trouble once past it, which is covered under other traffic laws.
An equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all three sides are equal. The yield sign on highways is an equilateral triangle.

you only have to stop at a yield sign if there is cross traffic - if it would not be safe for you to continue through the intersection. Typically only one road at the intersection will have a yield sign - the other one will either have no sign or a stop sign/light.
