3 A line is… When the ends of a continuous line meet, you make…. A shape is… A line can make a … SHAPE one-dimensional : a shape. (width) two-dimensional (width) (height)

4 Geometric shapes are usually angular and appear frequently in man-made objects. Geometric shapes such as circles, triangles or squares have perfect, uniform measurements and don't often appear in nature. Geometric VS Organic

5  Geometric shapes are precise shapes.  The basic geometric shapes are the circle, square, triangle.  Other geometric shapes are either variations or combinations of these basic shapes.
