What is the formula of finding an area?
in finding the area if a square or rectangle multiply the length and width, for a triangle, multiply length and width divided by two.
What two dimensions are multiplied when finding the area of a rectangle?
the two dimensions that are multiplied are the top long layer and one of the sides to figure out your area of your rectangle and square
What are the steps to solving the area of a two dimensional shape?
If a regular 2D shape - a square or rectangle - times the length by the width to get the area.If the shape is irregular than drawing squares inside the shape will aid in finding the total area. There are other ways worth studying.The area of a right-angle triangle is half the size of a rectangle or square. The triangle's base x side will give the area of the rectangle or square. Dividing by 2 will halve the rectangle or square, so giving the area of the right-angle triangle.
How is finding the volume different from finding area?
Finding volume is working in three dimensions while finding area is only working in two dimensions. Essentially, finding volume and area are the same basic principles, just volume has an additional component. For example, the area of a square is length*width, while the volume of a cube is length*width*height. Eventually things progress to the "calculus-state" and become much more complicated.
What is the formula for finding lengths of a square when you are given a volume?
None exist. A square is a measurement of area, length is a linear measurement and volume is a capacity. To find the lengths of a square from the area, take the square root of the area. To find the lengths of a cube from the volume, take the cube root of the volume. To clarify: Area refers to a two-dimensional space. Volume is three dimensional, and thus appropriate for a cube or ball, not a square or circle.
