The dimensions of any objects we touch, feel, and use in our every day life in 3 dimensional. When we say dimension we mean... How long is it? How high is it? How wide is it?
Long in maths terms is length
high in maths terms is height
wide in math terms is width or depth
When we draw on peices of paper it become 2 dimensional. On paper we can only draw length and height. You can not physically draw depth. Depth means it is going into the paper and this is not physically possible. Extremely talented artists and give an illision like it is 3-D but it really is still simply 2-D.
To actually draw 2-D shapes get a piece of paper. Draw a square. That square is 2-D shape. Draw a rectangle. That rectangle is in 2-D. Do this for all the shapes you can think of. Make sure to draw the proper length and height.

What does two-dimensional shapes look like?
"2-dimensional" means "flat". Anything you can draw on paper is a 2-dimensional shape.
How can you draw 3D Shapes?
You cannot draw a 3d shape. What you can draw, though, is a two dimensional projection of a 3 dimensional shape.
How many square edges?
None. Edges are one lines (1-dimensional) not shapes like squares (2-dimensional).None. Edges are one lines (1-dimensional) not shapes like squares (2-dimensional).None.
