What is the formula for a triangular pyramid in surface area?
A=1/2bh The area of a triangle is 1/2bh. If the base of it is a triangle and all 4 of the triangles aren't the same, then you have to find the area of the base triangle and then the three other triangles (which should all have the same area). If all four of the triangles have the same area, then just find the area of one of the triangles and multiply that by four. A triangular pyramid that has four equal triangles is also called a tetrahedron.
Do congruent triangles have the same area?
yes
If two triangles are congruent do they have the same area?
yes they have same area
What are two methods to finding the area of a rectangle?
1 method is to multiply length times the width and the 2 method is to divide the rectangle into triangles and find the area of one of the triangles and multiply the area by two.
Do you find the area of irregular shapes?
The best way would be to break the irregular shape down into several familiar shapes. If you can break down a complex figure into a rectangle and two triangles, for instance, you can use the known formulas for the area of those shapes to determine the total area when all added together.
