A square, circle, rectangle, and triangle are examples of two-dimensional objects. We can classify figures on the basis of the dimensions they have. The two dimensions are marked on a 2-D graph with two axes: x and y. The x-axis is perpendicular or at 90° to the y-axis. Three-dimensional.

Shapes define the boundary of an object and can be differentiated in many ways based on their properties. Shapes are defined by a boundary which is made by combining the curves, points, and line segments. Each shape has a name depending upon the structure. A few examples of shapes are circles, squares, rectangle, triangles, and so on.
Example 5: identifying 3D shapes in a composite shape. Look at the composite shape and identify all 3D shapes. Count the number of shapes that make up the composite shape. Show step. There are two shapes in this composite shape. Identify and state the number of each type of shape within the composite shape. Show step.
In geometry, an open shape can be defined as a shape or figure whose line segments and/or curves do not meet. They do not start and end at the same point. In geometry, a closed shape can be defined as an enclosed shape or figure whose line segments and/or curves are connected or meet. They start and end at the same point.
Classifying Two Dimensional Figure: Shapes in the World. This lesson is a chance for students to see that the world is made up of shapes. When they ask, “Why do I need to know geometry?” this is why. Our lessons in geometry and shapes often rely on 2D shapes in a textbook or drawn on the board, in isolation.

The Square. the little squares in each corner mean "right angle". A square has equal sides (marked "s") and every angle is a right angle (90°) Also opposite sides are parallel. A square also fits the definition of a rectangle (all angles are 90°), and a rhombus (all sides are equal length).
