How is the triangle formula derived from the area of rectangles?
The area of a triangle is expressed using the formula A=(1/2)(bh) Where A is area Where B is length of the base of the triangle. Where H is the height of the triangle. The area of a rectangle is A=BH, Where B is the length of the base of the rectangle. Where H is the height of the rectangle. Because a triangle, essentially, is a half of a rectangle, you find the area of the whole rectangle that the triangle comes from, then divide that in half.
How could you use the formula for area of a rectangle to find the formula for the area of a triangle?
A traingle covers half the area of a rectangle with the same base and [perpendicular] height.
How do you make a rectangle with triangle and square?
Put the two bases of the triangle together. To form a square. Place the squares side by side to form a rectangle
Teach a child area of triangle without formula?
You will have to use a formula, but this can easily be derived for the special case of a right triangle. If you divide a rectangle by a diagonal, you divide it into two congruent triangles, therefore, the triangle has half the area of the rectangle, that is, 1/2 times base times height.
Is a rectangle a triangle?

How do you find the area of a rectangle with a triangle attached to the side?
you split your shape in half, (The rectangle and the triangle), by putting a line through it and then calculate the area of the rectangle and then calculate the area of the triangle, half the area of the triangle then add the area of the triangle and the rectangle together!Then you should have your answer!
