There is no rule, but the point of home plate often faces west. This is so that the batter is not looking into the setting sun. This placement is the origin of the term "Southpaw" as a pitcher's left hand is on the southside when facing home plate, and a lefthanded pitcher would be facing south when in the stretch. Many other orientations are acceptable, but you would not want the batter facing west, nor the first baseman facing west when handling a throw from the other infielders.
Home plate's point faces the catcher. The opposite side is flat to the pitcher. Home plate also lies within the base paths whereas 1st, 2nd, and 3rd lie on the outside of the base paths. The pointy sides are the intersection of the 1st and 3rd base lines.

There are three 90 degree angles. (Looking at home plate from a "pitcher's viewpoint), the wide "front" of home plate has 90 degree angles on both sides. The back point, e.g. "the heart of the plate," is also a 90 degree angle. The two angles closest to the batter's back foot are both 135 degrees. This is because these angles are the sum of a 90 degree angle and a 45 degree angle. The back "triangle" of home plate is a 45-45-90 triangle. Hope this helps.
