Two dimensional (2-D) figures and three dimensional (3-D) figures are measurements of space. 2-D measure area which is the amount of space on a flat object. 3-D measures the amount of volume which is the amount of space inside an object.

2-D is a measurement of length and height

3-D is a measurement of length and height and depth

The similarities of these measurements is that they both measure the length and height, but 3-D just goes a little further in measuring how deep an object is.

No. A triangle can be a two-dimensional object whereas a pyramid must be three-dimensional (with sides that are sloped).


What is a 2-D polygon?

Talking about a "2-D polygon" is the same as talking about a "polygon." By definition a polygon is a 2-dimensional figure, so all polygons are 2-dimensional and anything that is not 2-dimensional cannot be a polygon. Of course, not all 2-dimensional figures are polygons.
