a.Avertex(plural:vertices) is a point where two or more straight lines meet. E.g. The 8 corners of the cube are its vertices.
b.An edge is a line segment that joins two vertices. E.g.The 12 line segments that form the skeleton of the cube are its edges.
c.A face is any of the individual surfaces of a solid object. E.g. The 6 flat square surfacesof the cube are its faces.

Euler’s Formula:
Faces + Vertices – Edges = 2
1) 3 + 4 - 6 = 1
1 ≠ 2
2) 3 + 8 -12 = -1
1 ≠ 2
3) 4 + 6 - 12 = -2
-2 ≠ 2
4) 3 + 20 - 30 = -7
-7 ≠ 2
5) 5 + 12 - 30 = -13
-13 ≠ 2
