How can you cut an square into 8 pieces equally?
Cut it just like a pizza. Cut it from the middle top to the middle bottom and from the middle left side to the middle right side. You should have four smaller squares all of equal size. Now cut each square diagonally to make 8 triangles. All 8 triangles are the same size. -- Place two diagonals from corner to corner or the square -- this is basically slicing the square into four, equal triangular quadrants. Then slice each of those triangles in half. That makes 8 triangles of equal area.
How do you change a tile to a triangle?
If a tile is a square or rectangle, cut the tile from corner to corner and you will create two triangles.
Is there a quadrilateral that can't be cut into triangles?

Is it possible to cover a floor with triangular shaped tiles?
Yes it is possible. Imagine regular square tiles cut into four pieces. The cuts would be from one corner to the opposite corner, similar to an X. Presto!! Triangles
How do you cut 2 squares and make one?
Cut each square diagonally to give two pairs of right angled triangles. Place all four triangles with their right angles around a point, their hypotenuses will form the sides of the single square.
How do you make a quadrangle?

How do you change a tile to a triangle?
If a tile is a square or rectangle, cut the tile from corner to corner and you will create two triangles.

no its an emphatic statement all squares can be cut in half to make 2 congruent isosceles right triangles is perhaps as general a statement as is possible
Is there a quadrilateral that can't be cut into triangles?

Can all polygons be cut into just triangles?
Yes, any polygon can be cut into only triangles.
Why do you have to cut the area of a triangle in half?
Because otherwise you would have found the area of the rectangle/square (the rectangle/square being if you put two of the triangles together).
When a square sandwich is cut into 2 equal pieces diagonally two triangles are the results classify these triangles in two different ways?
By angle: a right triangle. By sides: an isosceles triangle.
How do you separate triangles into other triangles?
