The correct Answer is:
To determine whether the statement "A cylinder has only one vertex" is true or false, we can analyze the properties of a cylinder. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Definition of a Cylinder**: A cylinder is a three-dimensional shape with two parallel circular bases connected by a curved surface. 2. **Identify the Faces of a Cylinder**: A cylinder has: - Two flat circular faces (the top and bottom). - One curved surface that wraps around the sides. 3. **Identify the Edges of a Cylinder**: The edges of a cylinder include: - Two circular edges where the flat faces meet the curved surface. 4. **Identify the Vertices of a Cylinder**: A vertex is defined as a point where two or more edges meet. In a cylinder: - The circular edges do not meet at a point; instead, they form a continuous curve. - There are no sharp corners or points where edges converge. 5. **Conclusion**: Since a cylinder does not have any vertices (points where edges meet), the statement "A cylinder has only one vertex" is **false**. ### Final Answer: **False (F)**: A cylinder has no vertices.
