In addition curved surfaces also exists. Figure 3 shows some of  solids having curved surfaces.

Primitive geometric forms
The shapes of objects are formed from primitive geometric forms . These are

  1. Point
  1. Line
  2. Plane
  3. Solid
  4. Doubly curved surface and object
  5. Warped surface

  The basic 2-D geometric primitives, from which other more complex geometric forms are derived.
