a top surface;
a bottom surface opposite to the top surface;

a corner cutting edge, a first cutting edge, a second cutting edge and a third cutting edge formed at a ridge line formed by the side surface and the top surface,
the corner cutting edge having a first end and a second end opposite to the first end in a top view,
the first cutting edge extending from the first end in a first direction in the top view,
the second cutting edge extending from the second end in a second direction intersecting the first direction in the top view,
the third cutting edge extending from the second cutting edge in a third direction forming an acute angle with the second direction in the top view,
