What are the two main theorems associated with Euler’s formula?

Euler’s formula refers to two distinct results. One is the exponential identity $e^{i x} = c o s x + i s i n x$ , linking complex exponentials with sine and cosine functions. The second theorem is the polyhedron formula V − E + F = 2, which relates faces, edges, and vertices of a solid shape.
