How do i get 2d shapes to render?

Hey, i am not new to programming, however this will be my first application that just uses OpenGL. I am currently using GLUT (i dont know if theres any alternatives).

Basically, i have been following a tutorial on 2d, however i noticed that this person was actually using 3d commands (and further on he went on the explain 3d). But i dont want to do any 3d creations at the moment, so i swapped over some comamnds to try 2d, and they dont appear on the screen…
I assume it is to do with me not calling the correct rendering function.

My code is as follows:

}

int main(int argc, char** argv) {
	//Initialize GLUT
	glutInit(&argc, argv);
	glutInitDisplayMode(GLUT_DOUBLE | GLUT_RGB | GLUT_DEPTH);

	//Set handler functions for drawing, keypresses, and window resizes

	glutKeyboardFunc(handleKeypress);
	glutReshapeFunc(handleResize);
	
	glutMainLoop(); //Start the main loop.  glutMainLoop doesn't return.
	return 0; //This line is never reached
}

And the function for rendering the shape:

void Shapes::Solid::Triangle (int X, int Y)
{
	/*//ORIGINAL CODE(3d:)
	glBegin(GL_TRIANGLES);
	
	glVertex3f(-0.5f, 0.5f, -5.0f);
	glVertex3f(-1.0f, 1.5f, -5.0f);
	glVertex3f(-1.5f, 0.5f, -5.0f);
	glEnd();*/
	//2d rectangle
	glRectf(-0.5f,0.5f,-1.0f,1.5f);

	//2d rectangle
	/*
	glVertex2f(10.0f, 10.5f);
	glVertex2f(10.0f, 11.5f);
	glVertex2f(10.5f, 10.5f);
	glEnd();*/
}

How do i get it to render 2d stuff instead of 3d?
