These are more basic in terms of design as they relate to the shape of the picture frame.
They occur more often as man-made than in nature eg buildings, windows and doorways. They can be seen as less interesting than triangles as they require less imaginative effort. The are static and there is less movement in shots that are simply divided by horizontal and vertical lines.
They do, if you are using them, have to be precise as they won't look right if they are even slightly out.
Here is an example of a rectangular shape in one of my images.
Circles
Depends on real circular objects which limits their use in photography. It is the tightest and most compact shape of all though and imposes more structure on the image than any other shape.
