How many different shapes can you make with 4 triangle cut out from a rectangle?

What four shapes makes a triangle?
1. Half of a Square (Diagonal Cut) 2. Half of a Parallelogram (Diagonal Cut) 3. If you take the rectangle out of a Trapezoid that makes 2 more 4. If you take the 2 vertices closest to the tip of a Pentagon and cut of the rest that's another one
What solid figure would you get if you cut a rectangle in half?
If you cut a rectangle in half you wouldn't get a solid figure at all, since a rectangle is a plane figure. If you made a straight line cut you would get either a triangle or a quadrilateral of some variety depending on exactly how the cut was made.
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.
If a 6 cm by 8 cm rectangle is cut along its diagonal what 2 shapes are created?
Two equal size right angle triangles.

How is a triangle and rectangle alike?
They are both polygon. If you cut a rectangle diagonally, you will have two triangles. And if you want to figure out the area of a right triangle, you can treat it as a rectangle and then cut your calculation in half to get the correct answer.
How do you find the area of a trapezoid using the area of a triangle?
You have to cut the trapezoid into three shapes. The three shapes will be two triangles and one rectangle or square. You have to find the area of these three shapes and then add all of the three areas up to find the area of the trapezoid.
When a cube is cut in half what shapes would it create?

What 2 shapes can you get when you cut a hexagon?
The answer depends on how you cut it.Even with a single straight cut you can get:a triangle and a heptagon,a triangle and a hexagon,a triangle and a pentagon,a quadrilateral and a hexagon,a quadrilateral and a pentagon,two quadrilaterals (trapezium),two pentagons.
Why do you have to divide 2 when you are finding the area of a triangle?
Picture a square. now make a line connecting the two diagonal points. If bh is the volume of the rectangle, then we only have half a rectangle for each right triangle giving 1/2 *bh or bh/2. For any other traingle put the base parallel to the ground. Make a perpendicular line to the ground then you have two parts of a triangle divided at a vertex. Each of the these parts has a right angle. Make a second triangle of the same size and if you turn it into the two triangle fromt he first triangle and cut it apart, you can manipulate it to make a rectangle. The two triangles are a rectangle which is bh. divide by two to get one triangle so 1/2*bh or bh/2

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).
How do you make a square piece of paper from an ordinary paper?
Fold diagonally from the corner, so that the short edge lines up with the long edge. Then cut away the extra rectangle of paper below the triangle. When you open the triangle, you will have a square.
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.
Why the triangle is 180 and the rectangle is 360?
There is a theorem which proves that the interior angles of a triangle add to 180o. It is too difficult to show the proof here, but you can easily make a demonstration: cut a triangle out of paper; make a pencil mark in each corner of the triangle. Cut or tear off each corner, and fit thethreemarked angles together. They should make a straight edge, which is a 180o angle.Draw a line joining two opposite corners of a rectangle; you have divided it into two triangles. Each of these triangles has angles that add to 180o; together, the six angles of the twotrianglesform the angles of therectangle and must add to 2x180o = 360o.
