Is a square an example of a plane figure?
yes, a square can only exist on a plane in euclidean geometry.
Who wrote about plane and solid geometry?
Euclid just another Greek
In geometry a solid may exist in three-dimensional space?
true
Why are plane and solid shapes important?
Objects that exist in the real world usually have shapes (although they can also be shapeless) and those shapes will bear some resemblance, and in some cases a very close resemblance, to the theoretical shapes of plane and solid geometry, such as triangles, squares, circles, spheres, cubes, etc. But even aside from that, a deep understanding of our universe (and the laws of nature which describe the way it operates) would not be possible without a knowledge of plane and solid shapes. Geometry has implications for every area of mathematics, and mathematics is the language of science.
What is a two dimensional object in geometry?
Two dimensional geometry is called "plane geometry" meaning that it occurs on a single surface or plane. The objects used in plane geometry are called plane figures.
