l x w and w x l
There are many ways to find the area of an odd shape. Usually, you have to break the shape down into shapes that you can calculate the area of, and then add the areas of all of those individual shapes to get the area of the entire odd shape.Example:_____|_____\There is no way to find the area of this figure, so you have to break it down into two, easy to find shapes.____|___|\You can see that there is a rectangle and a triangle. You can easily find the area of a rectangle with L X W, and a triangle with 1/2(b)(h). Since it is impossible to find the area of that irregular quadrilateral in one equation, you have to split it into two known shapes (the rectangle and triangle), find the area of each, and then add the areas together to get the area of the entire piece.
Yes, both methods are ways to find the area of either a square, rectangle or even a parallelogram.
To create rectangles using 24 square pieces of wood, you need to find pairs of factors of 24 that represent the rectangle's dimensions. The possible dimensions are: 1x24, 2x12, 3x8, and 4x6. Each pair corresponds to a unique rectangle configuration, with the area of each rectangle equaling 24 square units. Thus, the different rectangle arrangements are 1x24, 2x12, 3x8, and 4x6.
If a regular 2D shape - a square or rectangle - times the length by the width to get the area.If the shape is irregular than drawing squares inside the shape will aid in finding the total area. There are other ways worth studying.The area of a right-angle triangle is half the size of a rectangle or square. The triangle's base x side will give the area of the rectangle or square. Dividing by 2 will halve the rectangle or square, so giving the area of the right-angle triangle.
You cannot draw a single rectangle which has an area of 12 cm because 12 cm is a measure of length, not area! There are an infinite number of rectangles with an area of 12 cm2. Let L be any length greater than or equal to sqrt(12) = 3.464 cm (approx) and let B = 12/L cm Then Area = L*B = 12 cm2 and each value of L gives a different rectangle.
multiply the base by the height
The term "rectangle method" is used in different ways in math, but I will guess that your question is related to finding areas on a Geoboard. A Geoboard has a grid of pegs; you can make outlines of figures by stretching elastic bands around the pegs. If your figure is a triangle, you can find it's area by making the smallest rectangle which will enclose the triangle (The rectangle should have vertical and horizontal sides). The area of the rectangle can be found easily by multiplying the length by the width. The area of the triangle is half of the area of the rectangle.

first of all its AREA, and you can find it several ways all depending on what the shape of the object is, but for anything that is some sort of rectangle, and flat, it is Length x Width, and for any rectangle that is 3D, Length x Width x Height

1.) You can measure the sides of the shapes and add
They are both made of 4 sides and someone told me this but anyways, they have the same perimeter/area
