Question

the point on a cone where two or more line segments meet is called the (1 point)
oblique
vertex
edge
face

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • An oblique cone is one where the axis is not perpendicular to the base.
  • A vertex is a point where two or more line segments (in 3 - D geometry, for a cone, the lateral surface meets at a single point) meet.
  • An edge is a line segment where two faces meet (in polyhedrons, but a cone has a curved surface and a circular base, not multiple flat faces in the traditional polyhedron sense for edges).
  • A face is a flat surface (a cone has a curved lateral surface and a circular base face, but the question is about a point, not a surface).

Answer:

vertex.
