What to do if your pistol misfires?

It depends on what caused the misfire, and it depends on what you mean. If you are having constant misfires, then there is either something wrong with your ammo, or there is something wrong with the pistol. If you mean what is the proper procedure for clearing a misfire, then you keep the gun pointed in a safe direction and rack the slide to eject the bad round, or open the cylinder and eject it if it is a revolver.

Does a cylinder have any vertices?

anything with angles does have vertices * * * * * The circular base of a cylinder meets the curved surface at an angle of 90 degrees. So there are an infinite number of angles, but not a vertex in sight. Something wrong with your statement, perhaps!
