Some of the most popular games of all time feature basic 2D graphics and instead offer out-of-this-world gameplay. 2D games compensate for their lack of graphics with excellent storylines, fun gameplay, and interesting back stories.
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.
Create 2D drawings and designs with built-in templates, easy-to-use scales and customization, collaboration, and lots of technical symbols you can drag and drop.
Regardless of the type of object (curved, polygon, etc.), to be classified as a 2D object, the object must lie entirely within one plane and can only be measured in 2 different dimensions.
A 2D shape is a flat figure characterized by length and width but lacks depth or volume. Examples include squares, rectangles, triangles, circles, and hexagons.
A 2D (two-dimensional) shape can be defined as a plane figure that can be drawn on a flat surface. It has only two dimensions - length and width, with no thickness or depth.
2D shapes are shapes with two dimensions, such as width and height. An example of a 2D shape is a rectangle or a circle. 2D shapes are flat and cannot be physically held, because they have no depth; a 2D shape is completely flat.
This complete guide to geometric shapes includes every 2D geometric shape and all 3D geometrical shapes. Each geometric shape includes an image and a description.
There is an endless variety of 2D geometric shapes, but we’ll take a look at the names and properties of some of the most common, starting with the basic shapes and moving on to more complex ones.
