Geometric Shapes
Geometric Shapes are everywhere around us. Shapes are forms or outlines of objects that help us recognize and categorize what we see. From a book 📘 to a ball ⚽, every object has a shape. Understanding shapes is a key part of learning mathematics and developing spatial awareness. For more details about geometric shapes, you can check Wikipedia – Geometric Shape.
