according to shape, size, and their relationship to surrounding layers of rock

Explanation:

Scientists classify intrusive features according to their shape, size and relationship to surrounding layers of rocks.

Intrusive igneous features are the sills, di/kes, batholith, laccoiith, lopolith e.t.c

When magma cools and solidifies within the earth crust, they form intrusive igneous rocks.
Intrusive igneous rocks differs from one another in their shape, size and relationship to surrounding rocks.
For example, batholith is a large intrusive body that extends for several kilometers in the earth surface.
Sills and di/kes are smaller bodies. Sills forms parallel to orientation of rocks in an area. Di/kes are known to cut across the orientation.
