Shapes in PowerPoint are pre-built drawing objects that you can add to your slides to create diagrams, designs, and visual emphasis. They’re like building blocks for your slide layout and graphics. Technically, “shapes” are vector graphics primitives. They are similar to SVG format, which means you can resize them to any size without losing quality.

Main Characteristics of Shapes are:
1. They can be resized freely
2. They can be rotated
3. They can have fill colors, gradients, patterns, pictures
4. They can have outlines with customizable thickness, color, dash type
5. They can contain text inside them
6. They can be combined, grouped, layered, and merged to create custom graphics
