Can a triangle have the same perimeter and area as a parallelogram?

I don't know about the relation in the perimeters of a triangle and a parallelogram but if a triangle is on the same base on which the parallelogram is and the triangle is between the same parallel lines of the parallelogram, then the area of the triangle will be half the area of the parallelogram. That is, area of a triangle = 1/2 area of a parallelogram if the triangle is on the same base and between the same parallel lines.


How is the area of a triangle related to the area of a parallelogram?

If the heights and bases are the same, then the triangle is half the area of the parallelogram.


How is area of triangle related to parallelogram?

If the heights and bases are the same, then the triangle is half the area of the parallelogram.


Why do you have to divide the area of a triangle and not a parallelogram?

you do it because the triangle is half the size of the parallelogram


How is the area of a triangle different from the area of a parallelogram?

the difference is you bxh for parallelogramand you (bxh)x2 fortrianglea triangle has 4 sides and a parallelogram has 3 obviously they have different areas silly goose. I would know i go to harvard math


Does a parallelogram and a triangle can have the same base and area?

Yes, a parallelogram and a triangle can have the same base and area. If a triangle and a parallelogram share the same base and height, the area of the triangle will be half that of the parallelogram. However, if the triangle is formed by using one of the sides of the parallelogram as its base and the height is the same, they can have the same area. Thus, they can have the same base but will only have equal areas under specific conditions.


How is the area of a parallelogram related to the area of a triangle with the same base and height?

The parallelogram has twice the area of the triangle if their bases are the same and their heights are the same. Area triangle = 1/2 base x height. Area parallelogram = base x height.


Why is the area of a triangle base times length divided by 2?

Because base times height = the area of a parallelogram and a triangle's area is half that of the parallelogram that the triangle exactly fits into.


How is the formula for the area of a triangle related to the formula for an area of a parallelogram?

Area of a triangle = 0.5*base*perpendicular height Area of a parallelogram = base*perpendicular height


What triangle and parallelogram have the same area?

A triangle and a parallelogram can have the same area if the base and height of the triangle are proportional to the base and height of the parallelogram. Specifically, the area of a triangle is given by ( \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height} ), while the area of a parallelogram is ( \text{Area} = \text{base} \times \text{height} ). Therefore, if the base of the parallelogram is twice the base of the triangle and they share the same height, their areas will be equal.


How are the area formulas of triangles and parallelogram alike. How are they different?

They involve only the base and vertical height.The formula for a triangle is half that for the corresponding parallelogram.


Name one way in which a triangle and a parallelogram are different?

A triangle has three sides, while a parallelogram has four.
