A rectangle is a good, simple shape to begin with. The area of a rectangle is equal to the product of the length of its base and the length of its height. The height is a segment that is perpendicular to the base. For a rectangle, the base and height are often called the "length" and the "width", and sometimes the height is referred to as the "altitude."

How do you find a area of something?
It depends on what type of shape you are trying to find the area. If it is a rectangle, you do base times height. For triangles, you do base times height divided by two. For a circle, it is Pi*R^2.
What is the area of a rectangle with a base of 10 and a height of 7?
The area of a rectangle is length x width. The area of a triangle is 1/2 base x height. If you mean a rectangle, the area is 70 square units. If you mean a triangle, the area is 35 square units.
What is the area of the rectangle if the base is 2x and the height is 3x?
6X squared
What is the height of a rectangle if the area is 60 inches and the base is 20?
40 inches no. that is not right your area is 60 square inches; watch your units area = base x height height = area / base height = 60/20 = 3 inch
What isThe area of a triangle 4 by 7?
The area of a triangle is (1/2) base times height; the height must be perpendicular to the base.The area of a triangle is (1/2) base times height; the height must be perpendicular to the base.The area of a triangle is (1/2) base times height; the height must be perpendicular to the base.The area of a triangle is (1/2) base times height; the height must be perpendicular to the base.
