There are several different formulae for the area of a triangle - depending on the available information - and these were invented by different people.

There are different formulae for different plane figures. Since there are infinitely many possible shapes there are infinitely many formulae.
the area of a triangle is base times height times one half and rectangle is length times width
There are different formulae, depending on what you DO know. Here you will find several: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle#Computing_the_area_of_a_triangle

There is not one, but several formulae for triangles - depending on whether you want to calculate the angles, the lengths of the sides, the perimeter, the area, etc., and depending on what information is already known.
What do you mean they are the same? The are calculated with different formulae, for a start. The area of a square is length x width. The area of a triangle is (1/2) x base x height, where the height must be measured perpendicular to the base.
There is no formula that covers all aspects of quadrilaterals. There are different formulae for its area, or its angles.There is no formula that covers all aspects of quadrilaterals.

Depends on what information you have and what you require. If you have all three sides, there are different formulae to find the perimeter, angles and area. If you have two sides and an angle (depending on the angle) you have formulae for the remaining side and then perimeter and area. If you have a side and two angles there are formulae to find the missing sides and then perimeter and area. There are other possibilities: you have the altitude and require the area; etc.
It depends on what information you have.There are different formulae for when you know:base and vertical heightone side and two anglestwo sides and an anglethree sidesMost of these are reasonably straightforward to compute. There are more complex formulae to cater for other scenarios.
yes. When you are finding the area of a triangle you do the same for all types of triangles.
