No it isn't different because a rectangle is four sided and the corresponding angles are the same length. If you cut part of a rectangle into a triangle and put it on the opposite side it would turn into a parallelogram. You take part of it away and put it on another side that is no difference. So there is no differences about parallelogram and rectangle. (ONLY THE SHAPE OF COURSE.) Hope this helped you! >.<

How is the area of a rectangle and a parallelogram the same?
A parallelogram is just a rectangle leaned to one side
Which has a bigger area - a parallelogram or a rectangle?
A big parallelogram has more area than a small rectangle. A small parallelogram has less area than a big rectangle. The question is a lot like asking: "Which one is older, a dog or a cat ?"
What are 2 different names for a rectangle?
Parallelogram and Rectangle
A parallelogram and the area of a what have the same formula for area?
rectangle
How are a rectangle and parallelogram alike and different?
All rectangles are parallelograms but a rhombus for example, is a parallelogram but not a rectangle.
How is the formula for the parallelogram related to the area formula of the rectangle?
The area formula for the parallelogram is related to the area formula for a rectangle because you can make the parallelogram into a rectangle to find the area.
Why do the parallelogram and the rectangle have the same area?
a parallelogram is a tilted rectangle
How is the area of a rectangle and a parallelogram the same?
A parallelogram is just a rectangle leaned to one side
Can a parallelogram have the same area as a rectangle?
Yes it can. For one thing, a rectangle is a parallelogram so of course the answer is trivially yes. Now take a parallelogram that is not a rectangle. Area =basexheight These values can certainly be the same as the lenght of the sides of a rectangle.
Which has a bigger area - a parallelogram or a rectangle?
A big parallelogram has more area than a small rectangle. A small parallelogram has less area than a big rectangle. The question is a lot like asking: "Which one is older, a dog or a cat ?"

Draw a rectangle that is not a parallelogram?
draw a parallelogram which is not a rectangle.verify that its area is equal to the rectangle on the same base and altitude
A parallelogram and the area of a what have the same formula for area?
rectangle
How are a rectangle and parallelogram alike and different?
All rectangles are parallelograms but a rhombus for example, is a parallelogram but not a rectangle.
Can you deduce the area of a parallelogram from the area of a rectangle?
No. The area of a parallelogram varies infinitely from the maximum, as a rectangle, to virtually zero and the angles vary infinitely from 90 degrees to virtually zero or 180 degrees as the height of the parallelogram is reduced. There is no way to deduce the area of the parallelogram at any particular point in this transition by using the area of the rectangle alone.
How is the area of a parallelogram related to the area of a rectangle?
The area of a parallelogram is the length times the vertical height. In a rectangle, the vertical height is the same as the width so the area is length times width.
Why is the area of a rectangle greater than that of a parallelogram?
Not necessarily. In fact, if a rectangle and parallelogram have the same base and height, their areas are equal.
