To find the area, first divide the shape into regular, simple shapes. Then use formulas to find the area of the smaller, regular shapes. Then add up all the areas to find the area of the original shape.

What is a non geometric shape?

A non geometric shape can be defined as shapes with irregular contours, and whose edges are not straight. On the other hand, geometric shapes are shapes with regular contours and straight edges such as squares, triangles, or circles. ~by Kate Wellsonberg


What is non congruent?

Non-congruent represents something that is not in agreement, If superimposed it does not coincide. If two figures don't have the same shape they are considered non-congruent in Geometry. In order to be considered congruent, a figure must be the mirror image of another, if it is not, the figure is non-congruent.


What shape do you get if you put together a rectangle and a triangle?

If you put together a rectangle and a triangle, the resulting shape is called a trapezoid. A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides. In this case, the rectangle contributes two parallel sides, while the triangle contributes the other two non-parallel sides. The combination of these two shapes creates a unique geometric figure known as a trapezoid.


What shape has no vertices?

A circle is the only geometric two dimensional shape that does not have any vertices, or points. However, there are non geomatric shapes that do not have any vertices. These are called organic shapes and are constructed either of only curved sides or curved sids and straight sides. Many three dimensional shapes do not have any vertices, the geometric ones include cylinders, spheres, and hemispheres.


Is a circle a regular shape or non regular shape?

A circle is non-polygon. Meaning it has a curved side. A circle has no sides. It is non-regular.
