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.
Most of the three-dimensional shapes can be defined as a set of vertices, lines that connect the vertices and faces enclosed by these lines including obtained interior points. For many three dimensional shapes, faces are two-dimensional. Also, some shapes in three dimensions have curves surfaces.

A square is a four-sided geometric shape created by connecting four line segments of equal length. Similar to a rectangle, the line segments forming a square lie at right angles to each other. Examples of square objects are Rubik’s Cube, dice, chess boards, etc. Circle.
Definition of Geometric Shapes. Geometry shapes are figures containing line segments, curves, points, and angles further enclosed by a boundary. Each geometric shape has a name (circle, triangle, square, etc.), and they look like the objects we see in our daily lives.
Geometric shapes are also known as geometric figures made up of a combination of lines or curves. In our real-life, we are surrounded by geometric figures, such as, windows which are in the shape of squares, or, doors that are in the shape of rectangles, etc.
Have you seen the model of the Earth called the globe? What is the shape of this globe? Have you noticed the shape of a pizza? It is round in shape. If we cut out a slice from the pizza, the slice gets a triangular shape. Let us learn all about shapes, types of shapes, and geometric shapes. What are Shapes?

Geometric shapes can be classified into two categories: two-dimensional shapes and three-dimensional shapes. Examples of two-dimensional shapes include polygons, triangles, circles, and squares. Examples of three-dimensional shapes include spheres, cubes, pyramids, and cones.
