The first answer given was 6 x 6 = 36. I think a better answer is 91. The grid contains not only 36 small squares, it contains 25 2x2 squares, 16 3x3 squares, etc., all the way up to one big 6x6 square. If you think this interpretation makes no sense, then consider the parallel question, 'How many rectangles are there in a 6 x 6 grid?'
To calculate the number of rectangles in a 5 by 4 grid, you can use the formula for the number of rectangles in an n by m grid, which is n*(n+1)m(m+1)/4. Plugging in the values for n=5 and m=4, you get 5*(5+1)4(4+1)/4 = 564*5/4 = 600/4 = 150 rectangles. So, there are a total of 150 rectangles in a 5 by 4 grid.

Factors of 36 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 36. So, there are 5 rectangles with an area of 36 cm^2 is 5.

126 rectangles. 1 Strip of 6 equals 21 rectangles, multiply by 1 strip of 3 which makes 6, is 126 rectangles, all in one big rectangle.

A number is a "square number" if it corresponds to a square arrangement of dots in a regular grid pattern. The first few square numbers are...1:.4: (2 x 2 grid). .. .9: (3 x 3 grid). . .. . .. . .and so on.36 is a square number because that's how many dots are in a 6 x 6 grid.. . . . . .. . . . . .. . . . . .. . . . . .. . . . . .. . . . . .
To determine the number of rectangles in a 3 by 4 grid, we can use the formula for calculating the number of rectangles in an n by m grid, which is (n*(n+1)m(m+1))/4. Plugging in the values for a 3 by 4 grid, we get (3*(3+1)4(4+1))/4 = 30 rectangles. This includes rectangles of different sizes, such as 3x1, 2x2, and 1x3, within the grid.
There are 36 unique quadrilaterals in a 3x3 square grid: 14 squares = 9 (1x1) 4 (2x2) 1 (3x3) 22 rectangles = 6 (1x2) 6 (2x1) 6 (3x3) 2 (2x3) 2 (3x2) (the total number of quadrilaterals formed by 3 x 3 pin sets will be larger, i.e. 78)
Well, honey, in a 4 x 6 grid, you've got a total of 30 rectangles. You've got your 24 smaller rectangles formed by the individual squares, then you add 4 rectangles formed by 2 x 2 squares, and finally, you top it off with 2 rectangles formed by 3 x 2 squares. So, grab a calculator if you need to, but that's the tea!
In a 4 by 4 grid, there are 16 squares (1x1 squares), 9 rectangles that are 2x1, 6 rectangles that are 3x1, 4 rectangles that are 2x2, and 1 rectangle that is 4x4. Therefore, in total, there are 16 squares and 20 rectangles in a 4 by 4 grid.
To calculate the number of rectangles in a 5 by 4 grid, you can use the formula for the number of rectangles in an n by m grid, which is n*(n+1)m(m+1)/4. Plugging in the values for n=5 and m=4, you get 5*(5+1)4(4+1)/4 = 564*5/4 = 600/4 = 150 rectangles. So, there are a total of 150 rectangles in a 5 by 4 grid.
