Area of a triangle: 0.5*base*perpendicular height
the area of a triangle is base times height times one half and rectangle is length times width
Area of Triangle= 1/2(ab) You must multiply length b and length a together and then half it.
Probably Heron wanted a way to calculate the area of the triangle.
in finding the area if a square or rectangle multiply the length and width, for a triangle, multiply length and width divided by two.
1/2bh b=base h=height
yes. When you are finding the area of a triangle you do the same for all types of triangles.
Area of a triangle: 0.5*base*perpendicular height
the area of a triangle is base times height times one half and rectangle is length times width
The area of any triangle is1/2 of (the length of the triangle's base) times (the triangle's height).
You find the perimeter of a triangle by adding all the sides. There is no special rule for finding the perimeter.
Area in square units = 0.5*base*height
Area of Triangle= 1/2(ab) You must multiply length b and length a together and then half it.
Probably Heron wanted a way to calculate the area of the triangle.
Half of the base x the height.
in finding the area if a square or rectangle multiply the length and width, for a triangle, multiply length and width divided by two.
The rule for finding the area of a parallelogram is a simple equation of A=bh. For this equation, the A is area, b is base, and h is height. The area of a parallelogram is equal to the shape's base multiplied by the shape's height.
