Square.

Well balanced. Multi purpose. Excellent packing density.

Truly the patricians polygon.

it's either square or circle, I'm a bit biased towards edges so I want to say square, but in my heart I know that the circle is the most elegant and perfect shape that could ever exist.

The triangle. It's the most stable shape in nature. Squarefags need not reply.

The circle is a 2d representation of the sphere, which is mathematically the most efficient and perfect shape.

Technically, there are no perfectly smooth surfaces in the world, so a circle would just have the most sides out of them all.

the square is fucking obviously the best shape because it has the highest utility. For example, it maximizes the land area that you can fence off and utilize. If people's yards were circles, what woulld you do with the corners where no one's property was? Another example: we pack things and ship them in boxes, not in spheres, for the same reason. Civilization is based on the square.

Wrongest answers: diamond, rhombus, parallellogram, trapezium. Second wrongest: pent through decagons. 2nd rightest: circle. 3rd: triangle. 4th: oval.

you can make anything if you use an infinite number of anything. your argument is a tautology. "if you make any shape so small that it's functionally indistinct from a point, then you can use them as points." Fucking duh.

Trick question. Its the point. A single location in space with no sides is necessary to define literally all other shapes. The circle included, since it must have a point at the center.

Why is rhombus considered a unique shape when it's just a diamond that's halfway into fall on its side?
>>
>>29312934
As a professional artist I can safely say the best shape is the triangle.
>>
The best shape is obviously the fucking circle, it's aplications in complex analysis are tremendous, pi is the best number in the universe and there's a reason the trignometric circle is called the trignometric circle, faggots.

Circle is the best shape and if you think otherwise your brain simply isn't cut out for thinking.

>Triangles
Ok, so it's common knowledge that triangles are the most stable shape in nature and it applies to everything. Even in literature love triangles are a common thing mainly because it is easy to follow the characters ideals, but rarely the other side of the story is told. An stable relationship is ok when they are two people (assume that is just a line), but a solid relationship is great (the triangle). It doesn't matter if the triangle is MFM or FFM or even FFF/MMM, because this way it's unlikely that all of you will get in a fight or anything and any argument is solved quicker that in a "normal" relationship.

It can fit four right-angle triangles of equal dimensions that will cover its entire area. This is done in a way that isn't disgusting, such as the rectangle.

This basically invalidates square as being a viable choice, since you could just make your own square from triangles.

A square is just a Rhombus with 90 degree angles.

My thoughts exactly.

Triangles are the prettiest. I like that they have 3 points.

>>29317388
And a rhombus is just a parallelogram with sides of equal length.

This is a satire of how people will argue about anything, when beauty and tastes are subjective?

Nature prefers circles. Atoms are spheres. The sun is a sphere. Every of our body part is rounded. There are no squares in our bodies. There are no rough edges. Nature polishes away rough edges.
The eye doesn't stop on any specific part of the circle, not a particular part is of interest, but the whole of itself.

Triangles are also beautiful , because every other shapes other than circles can be decomposed into triangles, so it is the primeval shape
It has no pretension of complexity, it just is.
Truly a connoisseur's choice.

can we all agree that Oval is the most beta shape?

You're wrong about parallellogram,
It's the origin of all 4-sided regular shapes, every single one of them is a parallellogram
