parallel and perspective
Depending on which dimension you were speaking in perspective from... from a 3rd dimensional perspective, all two dimensional figures are "flat". (Meaning they have no depth or value along the 'Z' axis.) From a 2 dimensional perspective, your version of flat might be the 1st dimension. (Meaning they have no width, or value along the 'Y' axis) If you want to go down to flat from the 1st dimension... you'll end with the single point in the origin. No length, width, or depth there! I hope that's what you were asking! :3
The third dimension in three-dimensional figures is depth. While length and height define the two-dimensional aspects of an object, depth adds the third axis, allowing for a volume and creating a three-dimensional space. Together, length, height, and depth enable us to perceive and interact with objects in a more complete way.
A cube is a good example of a 3D figure when drawn on paper and showing perspective.
The term for the creation of the illusion of three-dimensional texture on a two dimensional surface is "visual texture." There are many ways of achieving visual texture, including relief, shading, and perspective.
