There are an infinite number of lines that can divide a triangle into two parts with equal areas. The medians are one set of such lines.
Oh, dude, it's like super simple. You just divide the rectangle into five equal parts, then shade in two of those parts. Voilà, you've got two fifths of a rectangle! It's like basic math, man.
There are two halves in 6. Each half represents one part of a whole, so when you divide 6 into halves, you get two equal parts of 3 each. This is because when you divide a number by 2, you are essentially splitting it into two equal parts.
Yes you can, but you have to use zig zag lines. Using straight lines there are only four ways to divide a square into two equal parts (along the lines of symmetry).
