2D shapes that are used in origami.

1. 2D SHAPES

2. SQUARES
Squares are the most common 2D shape
used to make origami. They are also,
arguably, the easiest to work with.

3. TRIANGLES
Triangles can also be used to make
origami. They are not as common because
there are not as many vertices or sides to
work with when folding.

4. PENTAGONS
More often than not, pentagons are made
from folding other geometric shapes into
them, but this is an example of a
geometric shape that can be made from
folding a pentagon.

5. HEXAGONS
Hexagons can also be folded into
geometric shapes, but not many.

6. N-GONS
All n-gons can be made through origami,
but not all n-gons can be folded into other
geometric shapes.
