    Geometric figures can be classified based on their dimensions as space figures, plane figures, lines, line segments, rays, or points. Space figures are three-dimensional with length, width, and height, often occupying space and having volume when closed, like a triangular prism. Plane figures are two-dimensional without thickness, lying entirely in one plane, such as the triangular faces of a triangular prism. Lines, line segments, and rays are one-dimensional, exemplified by the base of a triangle as a line segment with only length. Points are considered zero-dimensional as they do not occupy space, represented by the labeled vertices of a triangle.

    Geometric figures

    A geometric figure is any combination of points, lines, or planes. Geometric


    figures are often classified as space figure, plane figure, lines, line segments,
    rays, and points depending on the dimensions of the figure.

    Space figure
    A space figure is a three-dimensional geometric figure, or a figure that has
    length, width and height. It often occupies space and has volume when the figure
    is closed.
    Example
    The tent shown below is in the shape of a triangular prism. The drawing depicts
    the three dimensions of a triangular prism.

    Plane figure
    A plane figure is a two-dimensional geometric figure.It has no thickness and lies
    entirely in one plane.
    Example
    The triangular prism shown below has plane figures for faces. Two of these faces
    are triangles.

    Lines, line segments, and rays


    Lines, line segments, and rays are one-dimensional geometric figures.
    Example
    The base of this triangle is a line segment. It has one dimension, length:

    Points
    In the triangle above, the vertices are labeled A, B, and C. These points could be
    called zero-dimensional geometric figures because they do not occupy space.
