Mathematics and art have a long historical relationship. Linear perspective, symmetry, mathematical objects such as shapes...
This term we are going to work on Geometry.
Geometry is a branch of mathematics that studies the sizes, shapes, positions angles and dimensions of things.
- Flat shapes like squares, circles, and triangles are a part of flat geometry and are called 2D shapes. These shapes have only 2 dimensions, the length and the width.
- Solid objects are also known as 3D objects having the third dimension of height or depth.
