Can a paralleloelgram and a triangle have the same area give examples .?

A triangle twice as high as a parallelogram with the same base has the same area.


Are all triangles with same area similar?

No. When we say triangles are similar we mean that they are the same shape. So a triangle could have the same shape but be double the size. It would then have an area 4 times the original triangle.Example: a right angled triangle with sides 3, 4 and 5 cm would be similar to a right angled triangle with sides 6,8 and 10 cm. The area of the first triangle would be (3x4)/2=6sq cm, while the area of the latter would be (6x8)/2+24 sq cm.When triangles are identical they are called "congruent". They are the same shape and size and the same area.The formula to calculate the area of a triangle is half(basexheight) or bh/2. Triangles of the same area do not have to be similar. It is just necessary that the product of the base and the height are the same. So a triangle with a base of 4 and a height of 3cm would have the same area area as a triangle with a base of 1 and a height of 12cm.No. Long thin triangles can have the same area as short fat ones but they will not be similar just as two rectangles may have the same area but different proportions.Example:A rectangle 4 * 6 units has an area of 24 square units, so does a rectangle that is 2 * 12 units.Now the cut these rectangles in half, corner to diametrically opposite corner and you have triangles. The one 6 units long and 4 units high and the other 12 units long by 2 units. These have the same area (the both are 12 square units) but are not similar.


What is the area of a triangle 6 inches high by 7 inches wide?

A(Triangle) = 0.5 X Base X perpendicular height Substituting A = 0.5 X 7 X 6 => A = 0.5 X 42 => A = 21 sq. ins.


4 in high and 5 in wide what is the length?

Assuming a right angled triangle then the length would be 3. This is a pythagorean triangle with sides 3, 4, 5.


What is the area of a right triangle 9 inches high and 2 feet long?

If my formula is right, it should be 108 square inches. Since it is a right triangle, you should be able to solve it like a rectangle. However, you would take half. Here you would convert feet to inches, and that would be 24. Then multiply it by 9. Then divide by 2. Or, to make it easier, you can multiply 9 by 12 and not divide later.

Can a parallelogram and a triangle which have the same base have the same area?

Yes. If you drew them one on top of another, the parallelogram would be a "squashed" one that was not very high when compared to the height of the triangle. But it is eminently possible to have the two figures contain the same area and have the same base.


Is 7 meters high and 12 meters along the base what is the area?

It depends on whether the figure is a triangle, a rectangle, or some other shape.

a*b=(h*B)/2, a&b being the sides of the rectangle, h the height of the triangle and B the base: 8*5=(2B)/2 40=B

A triangle.


How do you find the equal sides of a triangle given the base of 12' and 8' high?

If the sides of the triangle are equal it is an isosccees triangle. Therefore the altitude (height) of the triangle divides the base into two equal parts. This resu;ts in two equal right angle triangles. The length of either equal side is the hypotenuse of a right triangle and its length follows directly from application of the Pythagorean thereom. length squared = base/2 sqiared + height squared or c2=a2+b2. c2=(12/2)2+82 =36+64=100 so c=10

What is the area of a triangle 6 inches high by 7 inches wide?

A(Triangle) = 0.5 X Base X perpendicular height Substituting A = 0.5 X 7 X 6 => A = 0.5 X 42 => A = 21 sq. ins.


What's area formula of an irregular polygon?

Divide polygon into rectangles, then use area formula for rectangle: Area = (high a + high b) / 2 x length c If polygon contains triangle, then triangle can be considered as rectangle with one of its side length is close to zero.


Find the area of a triangle with a base of 5ft and height of 6ft and 3ft?

The triangle only has one height, not two. The height is NOT the length of the other two sides, besides the one it's sitting on. The height is exactly that: the height. It's how high the ceiling has to be if you want to stand that triangle up in a room. In general, the height is LESS than the length of either side that the triangle is not sitting on.
