Not even the area of a rectangle?subhradeep mahata said:
Wrong requirement. USE knowledge of area of a rectangle! This will let you form a diagram like a construction to develop formula for area of a triangle.subhradeep mahata said:
Well, you can know the fromula of a triangle since it isn't any other figure.subhradeep mahata said:
The formula for finding the area of a triangle is A = 1/2 * base * height, where A represents the area, the base is the length of the triangle's base, and the height is the perpendicular distance from the base to the opposite vertex.
The base and height of a triangle can be found by measuring the length of the base and the perpendicular distance from the base to the opposite vertex. Alternatively, if the coordinates of the three vertices are known, the base and height can be calculated using the distance formula.
Yes, the formula A = 1/2 * base * height can be used for all types of triangles, including equilateral, isosceles, and scalene triangles. However, the base and height may need to be calculated differently depending on the type of triangle.
The units for the area of a triangle will depend on the units used for the base and height. If the base and height are measured in inches, the area will be in square inches. If they are measured in meters, the area will be in square meters. It is important to use consistent units for accurate calculations.
No, the formula A = 1/2 * base * height is specific to triangles and cannot be used for other shapes. Other shapes, such as squares, rectangles, and circles, have their own unique formulas for finding the area.
