To have less air resistance (in the case of rockets, while they are still in the atmosphere).
To reduce air resistance.

No, vertices do not have to be pointed out. Vertices are the points where the edges of a shape or object meet. They can be sharp or rounded, depending on the shape or object.
There are many options. Amongst them: An ellipsoid (including a sphere) intersected by two planes which do not, themselves intersect within the shape; A paraboloid intersected by two planes which do not, themselves intersect within the shape; A cone intersected by two planes which do not, themselves intersect within the shape; A semi-hyperboloid intersected by two planes which do not, themselves intersect within the shape; A toroid (doughnut) intersected by two planes which do not, themselves intersect within the shape; An elliptic prism intersected by two planes which do not, themselves intersect within the shape. The last of these would include a cylinder.

Rockets are pointed to streamline their shape and reduce aerodynamic drag during ascent through the atmosphere. The pointed tip, or nose cone, helps minimize resistance and allows the rocket to cut through air more efficiently. Additionally, a pointed design aids in stability and control, ensuring that the rocket maintains the correct trajectory during flight.
It has been found that such a shape reduces air resistance.
Rockets have a pointed shape to reduce air resistance as they travel through the Earth's atmosphere. The pointed tip helps to minimize drag and improve aerodynamic efficiency, allowing the rocket to reach higher speeds more efficiently. This design also helps to stabilize the rocket's flight trajectory.

To reduce air resistance.
The hydra has flares and rockets, the hunter has a gun and rockets and the Sea Sparrow has a gun.
I think it is because of air resistance. Think about it, when objects fly up in the atmosphere they still must get past the air molecules floating around. The rocket tips being sharper allows the rocket to "slice" in between the molecules, which makes the rocket fly faster and easier. If the top was flat, the rocket would have to "push" the molecules out of the way, which would slow the rocket down.

Resistance can affect the shape of a rocket by increasing drag, which can slow down the rocket and reduce its efficiency in reaching its intended destination. To minimize resistance, rockets are typically streamlined with pointed fronts and smooth surfaces to reduce drag and improve aerodynamics.
Rockets are long, slender vehicles with a pointed end and thrusters at the base. They usually have a cylindrical or conical shape, and are often covered in a shiny, metallic material. The size and design of rockets can vary depending on their intended purpose and destination.
