Figure VII.2: 1-D, a line segment. It has a length, and it is created by moving a point.
On the other hand there are so many types of angels who also have different states or levels (37:164) and different structures. Some of those various types are mentioned in the Qur an (37:1-3, 51:1-4, 77:1-5, 79:1-5, etc.), and Ibn Arabi talks about them in some detail very often in his writings [III.445.35-446.6, and also: Insha al-Dawa ir: 27]. And it is quite clear by studying these types that they are assigned specific duties, just like the different forces in Nature (including the elementary and other forces).
Therefore, our suggestion that angels are beings of 1-D appears justified because such natural forces always operate in one dimension (they are also represented as vectors '→' in physics and mathematics), though their effects might appear in two or three dimensions as well.
Notice also that, just as the real (the Greatest Element) is 0-D and can be represented by a dot, the Single Monad is 1-D and can be represented by a line. In letters, the letter alif is made by the flow (sayalan) of the dot. So also the Single Monad is made by the flow (the repeated creative manifestation) of the Greatest Element (see figure 2 above).
