How is the golden rectangle to the golden section?
The ratio of the shorter side of the rectangle to the longer side is the same as the ratio of the longer side to the sum of the two sides. And that ratio is the Golden section.
What has the golden ratio in it?
A great many things have the golden ratio in them varying from things fabricated by humans such as architecture, the proportions of the sides of a book also fall into the golden ratio. The golden ratio also occurs naturally for example the spiral in the snail's shell falls into the golden ratio. Generally most man made things have the golden ratio in them as it has been found quite simply, to look good.
Is there a golden triangle if there's a golden rectangle?
There are both golden triangles and golden rectangles. In order to be considered golden the ratio must be the same as the sum of the longest side to the other two sides.
What geometric shape has 8 sides?
An octagon has 8 sides.
What geometric figure that has 5 sides?
A pentagon has 5 sides
There are two rectangles what are the ratio of the first to the second?
I guess you mean the ratio of the areas; it depends if the 2 rectangles are "similar figures"; that is their matching sides are in the same ratio. If they are similar then the ratio of their areas is the square of the ratio of the sides.

What is the geometric name for a figure that has 4 sides?
Quadrilateral is the name fr a geometric figure with 4 sides.
In a golden rectangle if the top and bottom lines of the rectangle are each 3 and one half inches how long would the side lines of the rectangle be?
To make it a golden rectangle the sides should be in 1:0.618 ratio. Lets say your width is made of a + b. a and b are in golden ratio. THis gives a + b = 3.5 <---- equ 1 b = .618 a (because they are in golden ratio) substitute to equ 1 1.618a = 3.5 a = 3.5/1.618 = 2.163 b = 1.336 now you can construct your sides with a = 2.163 to have a golden rectangle
