It heavily depends on exactly how they're related.
A rectangle and a triangle have equal areas. The length of the rectangle is 12 inches, and its width is 8 inches. If the base of the triangle is 32 inches, what is the length, in inches, of the altitude drawn to the base?
you need length and width length multiply width = area length + length + width + width = perimeter

The area of a triangle is expressed using the formula A=(1/2)(bh) Where A is area Where B is length of the base of the triangle. Where H is the height of the triangle. The area of a rectangle is A=BH, Where B is the length of the base of the rectangle. Where H is the height of the rectangle. Because a triangle, essentially, is a half of a rectangle, you find the area of the whole rectangle that the triangle comes from, then divide that in half.
The base is 2.5ft.
Rectangle: length x width triangle: (base x height)/2

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.

Because a triangle is half of a rectangle. The area of a rectangle is length times width, the area of a triangle is half that.
You an calculate the area of a rectangle by multiplying length x width.
