A square would have the same formula for area as a rectangle: Area = length x width. Both figures have four right angles.
rectangle
A traingle covers half the area of a rectangle with the same base and [perpendicular] height.
Any plane shape can have the same area as any other plane shape if the dimensions are carefully selected
Would be congruent.It doesn't have to be a rectangle, though.It could be any shape.
of course base times height for a square or rectangle. but for a trapezoid a= h x "b1+b2"
rectangle
Area rectangle = length x width (using same units).
A traingle covers half the area of a rectangle with the same base and [perpendicular] height.
it is the formula for both a rectangle and a square. remember a square is a rectangle, but a rectangle is not a square (what i mean is a square has to have all 90 degree angles and four sides that are all the same length a rectangle doesn't have all the same lengths. but a rectangle is a shape with all 90 degree angles, and a square fits that discription)

depends on the shape, if its a square the formula is LW, a rectangle is the same. For a triangle the formula is Lx1/2W. for a trapezium split it into triangles and rectangles and work out the areas before adding them together. for a circle i think its pixrsquared
Multiply the width (w) by the height (h). Or (w) x (h) = a (area). The same goes for any shape, except rounded figures, i think
of course base times height for a square or rectangle. but for a trapezoid a= h x "b1+b2"
A rectangle and a parallelogram have the same formula for area:The area of a parallelogram is given:area = length × widthwhere:length is the length of one of the sides of the parallelogram; andwidth is the perpendicular distance between the side chosen for the length and its parallel side.In the formula for the area of a rectangle, the width (perpendicular distance between the sides given for the length) is also the length of the other two sides.
because they are the same shape
Squares are rectangles so the formula for area will stay the same.
