It depends on what the shape is. There are relatively simple formulae for triangles, circles, parallelograms, regular polygons; and more complicated formulae for ellipses, irregular polygons and other shapes.
If the shape can be described algebraically, then integration may provide an answer.
Then there are non-analytical methods for very irregular shapes. You can get an estimate by mapping the shape onto a grid and counting the number of squares covered and part covered. Or you can cut out an identical shape from a uniform lamina and compare its mass to the mass per unit area.

The area of a rectangle is found by multiplying the length times the width.
The area of a rectangle is found by multiplying its length by its width, so the area of a rectangle that measures 4m x 3.5m is 14 square meters.
The dimensions of a rectangle are the length and the width. With these two measurements , the area of the rectangle can be calculated : Area = length x width. The perimeter can also be found : Perimeter = (2 x length) + (2 x width).
The area of a square or rectangle can be found by multiplying the length times the width. In a square both the length and width are the same measure.

The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying the length by the width. The formula for the area of a rectangle is Area = Length x Width.

The area of a rectangle is found by multiplying the length times the width.
There is no "height" of a rectangle, unless it's a rectangular prism. Do you mean the length? If you have the area of the rectangle, the equation should be:A= L x WPlug in the area and the length and solve for the width, or plug in the area the width of the rectangle, and solve for the length.

Because otherwise you would have found the area of the rectangle/square (the rectangle/square being if you put two of the triangles together).
Rectangle area = (rectangle width) x (rectangle height)
The area of a rectangle is found by using the formula A=LxW (Area equals length times width)The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying the length by the width - the result is square measure. A rectangle 6 inches by 8 inches would be 48 square inches in area. (6x8=48)ExampleA=LxWA=4x5A=20
A rectangle is a two-dimensional or plane figure it therefore does not have a volume. It has an area which is found by multiplying the length by the width.
The dimensions of a rectangle are the length and the width. With these two measurements , the area of the rectangle can be calculated : Area = length x width. The perimeter can also be found : Perimeter = (2 x length) + (2 x width).
