How is a triangle and rectangle alike?
They are both polygon. If you cut a rectangle diagonally, you will have two triangles. And if you want to figure out the area of a right triangle, you can treat it as a rectangle and then cut your calculation in half to get the correct answer.
A rectangle has a base of 5 inches and a height of 7 inches If the dimensions are cut in half what will happen to the area of the rectangle?
It doesn't make any difference what the original dimensions are. If they're both cut in half, the area is reduced to 1/4 of the original area.
Why do you have to cut the area of a triangle in half?
Because otherwise you would have found the area of the rectangle/square (the rectangle/square being if you put two of the triangles together).
Can a square be cut in half vertically to make two identical rectangles?
Yes of course. Each rectangle will have a width half its length.
What kind of triangle are formed if the rectangle is divided diagonally into two?
You would get two right-angled triangles.
