In this paper, we have proved some characterization theorems of best approximation in linear 2-normed spaces, Some of the results in inner product spaces have been extended to 2-inner product space set up and also provided some results in 2-inner product spaces and also established some equivalent conditions for orthogonality in the context of linear 2-normed spaces.
