Triangle:<\/strong> A triangle is a two-dimensional closed shape with 3 points and 3 sides. There are 3 types of triangles based on their angles.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Rectangle:<\/strong> A rectangle has 4 points and sides. This 2D closed shape has equal lengths on opposite sides.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Square:<\/strong> A square is a two-dimensional closed shape with 4 points and 4 equal sides.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Sphere:<\/strong> A sphere is a three-dimensional shape in geometry that looks closely similar to a two-dimensional circle.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Rhombus:<\/strong> A rhombus is a two-dimensional closed shape with four sides of equal length. It has 4 points and sides.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. Parallelogram:<\/strong> A parallelogram is a two-dimensional closed shape with two pairs of opposite sides parallel. The opposite angles are also equal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>7. Pentagon:<\/strong> A pentagon [penta (five) + gon (angle)] is a geometrical shape with 5 sides and angles.<\/p>\n<p><strong>8. Hexagon:<\/strong> A hexagon [hexa (six) + gon (angle)] is a geometrical shape with 6 sides and angles.<\/p>\n<p><strong>9. Octagon:<\/strong> An octagon [octa (eight) + gon (angle)] is a geometrical shape with 8 sides and angles.<\/p>\n<p><strong>10. Decagon:<\/strong> A decagon [deca (ten) + gon (angle)] is a geometrical shape with 10 sides and angles.<\/p>\n<p>Recognising different shapes is an early step in understanding and remembering numbers and letters. Therefore, explore the world of shapes and discover the shapes around you with the basic names of shapes.<\/p>\n<p>To stay updated about all the important information from the <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.narayanaschools.in\/\">Narayana Educational Institutions<\/a><\/span>, Join our social media channels:<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/narayanaeducationalinstitutions\">https:\/\/t.me\/narayanaeducationalinstitutions<\/a><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/TheNarayanaGroup\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/TheNarayanaGroup<\/a><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/thenarayanagroup\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/thenarayanagroup<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shapes are all around us.
