The study of plane and solid figures is called geometry. Geometry focuses on the properties, measurements, and relationships of points, lines, angles, surfaces, and solids. It encompasses various subfields, including Euclidean geometry, which deals with flat surfaces, and solid geometry, which examines three-dimensional shapes.
Euclid
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.
In geometry, a solid is a three-dimensional object that occupies space, while a plane is a flat, two-dimensional surface. A solid cannot exist entirely within a plane, as it has depth, but it can intersect or project onto a plane. For example, a cube can cast a shadow (a two-dimensional representation) onto a plane, while still being a three-dimensional object. Thus, solids may interact with planes, but they exist in three-dimensional space.
Presumably it is simply geometry. However, plane geometry is geometry which is limited to objects with up to two dimensions, that is, objects that lie in a plane - or on a flat surface.
one is plane and one is solid
Plane Geometry and Solid Geometry
solid geometry deals with 3 dimensional figures while plane geometry deals with 2 dimensional.
No. Solid geometry is 3 dimensional. Plane geometry is 2 dimensional.

Plane Geometry (is about flat shapes like lines, circles and triangles ... shapes that can be drawn on a piece of paper) Solid Geometry (is about three dimensional objects like cubes and pyramids).
