Is it possible for a rectangle and a triangle to have the same area?
Yes.
Can the same circumference of triangle square rectangle have a different area?
no
A triangle is within a rectangle. how to find the ratio of the area of triangle to the rectangle?
Sounds like the triangle is spread out so that (the point is at the top of the rectangle) and (the base of the triangle is the same as the base of the rectangle).Base of rectangle = base of triangleHeight of rectangle = height of triangleWrite the formulas:Area of the rectangle = (base) times (height)Area of triangle = (one half of) (base) times (height)Can you see the ratio now ?
Area of triangle relates to the area of a rectangle?
Yes. Any triangle can be fitted twice into a rectangle having the same base length and vertical height as the triangle. Consequently, whilst the area of a rectangle = length x width ; the area of a triangle = 1/2 base x height. If we were using the same words this would be 1/2 length x width.
How could you use the formula for area of a rectangle to find the formula for the area of a triangle?
A traingle covers half the area of a rectangle with the same base and [perpendicular] height.
How is the area triangle related to the area of a rectangle?
two right triangles = full rectangle That is - if you multiply height times base of a triangle, the area will be 1/2 of a rectangle having the same height, and a width the same as the triangle base.
Is it possible for a rectangle and a triangle to have the same area?
Yes.
For each triangle draw the other half of a rectangle. What does this mean?
The area of qa triangle is always half of the area of a rectangle with the same dimensions
Can the same circumference of triangle square rectangle have a different area?
no
How is a rectangle and a triangle the same?
They are both geometric shapes
How do you find the area of a rectangle with a triangle attached to the side?
you split your shape in half, (The rectangle and the triangle), by putting a line through it and then calculate the area of the rectangle and then calculate the area of the triangle, half the area of the triangle then add the area of the triangle and the rectangle together!Then you should have your answer!

How is the area of a triangle related to the area of a rectangle with the same base and height?
1/2
Is every triangle half of a rectangle?
No. Although the area of every triangle is equal to half the area with the same base and height, only right angled triangles are half a rectangle.
What is the relationship between the area of a triangle and a rectangle?
The relationship between the area of a triangle and a rectangle is a Triangle is base times height divided by 2. Area of a rectangle is length times height.

A traingle covers half the area of a rectangle with the same base and [perpendicular] height.
