A `DeleteMenu` class is created, extending `google.maps.OverlayView`, to manage the deletion interface. When a user right-clicks a vertex, a \"Delete\" menu appears. Clicking \"Delete\" triggers `removeVertex()`, which removes the selected vertex from the polyline's path. The code handles menu positioning and closing, ensuring it only appears on vertex clicks and closes when clicking outside. The sample is demonstrated with both typescript and javascript.\n"]]
