A rectangle is just a particular form of p-gram...defined, if memory serves, as "A p-gram with one right angle".

Can two parallelograms with different shapes have the same area?

Sure. The area of a parallelogram is (length of base) times (vertical height). Many pairs of numbers can have the same product, but if the (base / height) of two parallelograms are different pairs of numbers, then their shapes are different. Example: A rectangle is a parallelogram that's easy to work with. Take two rectangles: Rectangle #1: Length=6, Width=5, Area=30 Rectangle #2: Length=15, Width=2, Area=30 These rectangles certainly have different shapes. In #1, the length is 83% of the width, and in #2, the length is only 13% of the width. But they both have the same area.


Do you have to use the same variables for all equations when creating a system of equations?

The idea is to work with the same variables, but it is possible that some of the variables are missing in some of the equations.


What did diophantus discover?

Diophantus, often referred to as the "father of algebra," made significant contributions to mathematics, particularly in the field of algebraic equations. He is best known for his work "Arithmetica," which introduced methods for solving linear and quadratic equations and laid the groundwork for later developments in number theory. Diophantus also explored the concept of Diophantine equations, which are polynomial equations that seek integer solutions. His work influenced later mathematicians and the development of algebra as a discipline.
