  3. Geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometry

    Geometry (from Ancient Greek γεωμετρία (geōmetría) 'land measurement'; from γῆ (gê) 'earth, land' and μέτρον (métron) 'a measure') [1] is a branch of mathematics concerned with properties of space such as the distance, shape, size, and relative position of figures. [2] Geometry is, along with arithmetic, one of the oldest ...

  4. Shape - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shape

    A figure is a representation including both shape and size (as in, e.g., figure of the Earth). A plane shape or plane figure is constrained to lie on a plane, in contrast to solid 3D shapes. A two-dimensional shape or two-dimensional figure (also: 2D shape or 2D figure) may lie on a more general curved surface (a two-dimensional space).

    Lists of shapes cover different types of geometric shape and related topics. They include mathematics topics and other lists of shapes, such as shapes used by drawing or teaching tools. They include mathematics topics and other lists of shapes, such as shapes used by drawing or teaching tools.

  6. Shape and form (visual arts) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shape_and_form_(visual_arts)

    Geometric shapes are precise edged and mathematically consistent curves, [citation needed] they are pure forms and so consist of circles, squares, spirals, triangles, while geometric forms are simple volumes, such as cubes, cylinders, and pyramids. [3] They generally dominate architecture, technology, industry and crystalline structures.

  7. Triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle

    A triangle is a polygon with three corners and three sides, one of the basic shapes in geometry.The corners, also called vertices, are zero-dimensional points while the sides connecting them, also called edges, are one-dimensional line segments.

  8. Polyhedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyhedron

    In geometry, a polyhedron (pl.: polyhedra or polyhedrons; from Greek πολύ (poly-) 'many' and ἕδρον (-hedron) 'base, seat') is a three-dimensional figure with flat polygonal faces, straight edges and sharp corners or vertices.
