Well,

Take a triangle.  It has three vertices and three sides.  The three vertices dictate that there will be three sides.  The same rule applies for a quadrilateral (four vertices and sides), a pentagon (five vertices and sides), etc.  So the number of vertices in a polygon is equal to the number of sides in the same polygon.

Taking this a step further, since the number of vertices are equal to the number of sides, we can conclude that a polygon with three vertices is a triangle, a polygon with four vertices is a quadrilateral, a polygon with five vertices is a pentagon, etc.

A hemisphere has a diameter of 26 centimeters. What is the volume of a sphere with the same radius?
salantis [7]
r= \frac{d}{2}= \frac{26}{2} \;\Rightarrow r=13\,cm  \\  \\ 
V= \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 \\  \\ 
V= \frac{4}{3} \pi \,(13)^3 \\  \\ 
V= \dfrac{4\cdot 2197}{3} \pi \\  \\ 
V= \frac{8788}{3} \pi\approx 9202,77\,cm^3
