This is a list of two-dimensional geometric shapes in Euclidean and other geometries. For mathematical objects in more dimensions, see list of mathematical shapes. For a broader scope, see list of shapes.
In mathematics—namely geometry—and in real life, geometric shapes are two or three-dimensional figures that can be recognized and categorized based on a specific outline/boundary and other attributes including curves, lines, and angles.
Two-dimensional curved shapes include circles, ellipses, parabolas, and hyperbolas, as well as arcs, sectors and segments. Three-dimensional curved shapes, including spheres, cylinders and cones, are covered on our page on Three-Dimensional Shapes.
Curved Shapes. The figures that consist of curved lines and associated points are called curved shapes. The main types that are included under this category are described below:
Here you will find a list of different geometric shapes to help you to identify a range of 2d and 3d shapes. Along with each shape, we have also included the properties of each shape and other helpful information.
Both circle and ellipse have a curved shape, whereas the polygons have a closed structure with sides. Now let us discuss some shapes one by one. Circle. A circle is a closed 2d figure in which the set of all the points in the plane is equidistant from a given point called “center”.

A geometric shape is any structure, open or closed, having a definite shape and properties made up of lines, curves, and points. Some of the known geometric shapes are square, rectangle, circle, cone, cylinder, sphere, etc. All these shapes have some properties that make them unique and different from the other shapes.
