Question

Which of the following is/are two dimensional figures?

• A. Square
• B. Circle
• C. Cube
• D. Both A and B

Answer 1

The correct option is D Both A and B

Any shape that can be laid flat on a piece of paper or any mathematical plane is a 2D figure. Two dimensional or 2D figures can be summarized by calling them flat shapes.

Width, height and thickness are the dimensions of an object.

A shape that has only two dimensions that is width and height are also know as two dimensional objects or figures.

Two dimensional objects do not have thickness.

Hence, square and circle are 2D figures since they lay flat on the paper and do not have thickness.

Cubes have thickness and hence they are not two dimensional figures.
