What is the base and height of a square?
The base and height of a square are always equal to each other. ALWAYS.
Is volume only for 3D shapes?
The volume of anything is always the area of the base of the object times the height. Therefore, to find the volume the object must have a height, which makes volume work with all 3D shapes. If one is looking at a 2D shape, then there is no height so a volume cannot be calculated (note: areas may be found of 2D shapes).
what- The ratio of the base to the height of a roof is 26:5. The base is 42 feet longer than the height.What are the base and height of the roof?
base: 52 ft
The height of a triangle is three feet longer than the base The area of the triangle is 35 square feet Find the height andbase of the triangle?
the height of a triangle is three feet longer than the base. The area of the triangle is 35 square feet. Find the height andbase of the triangle
What is the relationship between the height and base area?
There is no relationship, in the sense that you can have any base are with any height. For a prism shape (if the horizontal cross section is always the same as the base), the base area times the height is equal to the volume.
Why is area always squared?
Because it is the base times the height.
What is the relationship between the area of a parallelogram and a triangle when the base and height are the same?
The area of a parallelogram is base x height and the area of a triangle is 1/2 x base x height. So the area of a parallelogram will always be 2 times bigger than a triangle with the same base and height.
What is the Difference between base and area of base?
base is for 2d shapes and area of base is for 3d shapes
Can you work out the area of any triangle using bxh divided by 2?
Yes, that works for any triangle. The height always has to be at a right angle to the base. If there is an angle over 90 degrees, you may have to extend the base.Yes, that works for any triangle.

Why is it called side for only squares and not base or height?
Since the base and height for a square are always equal, and all angles included are right angles (90 degrees), it is common to refer to each as a side. All sides are of equal length, and base = height.
When calculating area what are the similarities between triangles and parallelogram?
Parallelogram = Base*Height Triangle = 0.5*Base*HeightParallelogram = Base*Height Triangle = 0.5*Base*HeightParallelogram = Base*Height Triangle = 0.5*Base*HeightParallelogram = Base*Height Triangle = 0.5*Base*Height
Can the base and height of a triangle be perpendicular?
YES!!! When calculating the area of a triangle the equation is A = (1/2)bh That is the base(b) is multiplied to the perpendicular height(h), and then multiplied by '1/2' or '0.5'.
