Explanation           October 4, 2012

The area of rectangle ABCD is 7 cm × 4 cm = 28 cm²
                   A                 D

               4 cm


                   B                 C
                           7 cm

You can make two equal triangles by drawing a diagonal
from A to C.
The total area of these two triangles will be the same as
the area of the original rectangle.
The area of one triangle will be…
               1 × 7 cm × 4 cm = 14 cm²
               2
                                                       More
                                                       Next
Examples            October 4, 2012

This works for all right angle triangles.
         4 cm
                     5 cm


                                       5 cm
   1 × 5 cm × 4 cm = 10 cm²
   2
                                              3 cm
                                1 × 5 cm × 3 cm = 7.5 cm²
                                2
         2.5 cm

                   4.5 cm
   1 × 2.5 cm × 4.5 cm = 5.625 cm²
   2
                                                          More
                                                          Next
Explanation               October 4, 2012

Triangle NOP is not a right angle triangle.
You can create two right angle triangles by dividing it in
two.
Both new triangles have the height of the perpendicular
used to divide the original triangle.
                                N



                5 cm        5 cm          5 cm


                  P                       O
                         5 cm 8 cm 3 cm

The areas of each triangle can be calculated.

Explanation                 October 4, 2012

                                 N


              15 cm
                 ×                          5h
                                             cm
              2
                  P                         O
                        5 cm 8 cm    3 cm
                             b
In fact, youof of calculating can be of is triangle if you
The areas can work out the area calculated.
Another way each triangle this area any
1 × 8 the perpendicular height, using the formula…
know
     5 cm × 5 cm = 20 cm²
                      12.5 cm²
2
area of the triangle = 1 × base × perpendicular height
1 × 3 cm × 5 cm = 7.5 2   cm² or
2
                12.5 cm² + 17.5 cm² = 20 cm²
                      A =      × b × h             So
                            2
The area of triangle NOP = 20 cm²
                                                            More
Explanation             October 4, 2012



           1 ×          b            b
           2                    hh
                            h

                            b

You can use any side of the triangle as the base, from
which to work out the perpendicular height.
When you calculate the area, make sure that you use
the height that corresponds to the base that you choose.

Another way each triangle this area any 1 × 8 the perpendicular height, using the formula… know 5 cm × 5 cm = 20 cm² 12.5 cm² 2 area of the triangle = 1 × base × perpendicular height 1 × 3 cm × 5 cm = 7.5 2 cm² or 2 12.5 cm² + 17.5 cm² = 20 cm² A = × b × h So 2 The area of triangle NOP = 20 cm² More
  • 7. Explanation October 4, 2012 1 × b b 2 hh h b You can use any side of the triangle as the base, from which to work out the perpendicular height. When you calculate the area, make sure that you use the height that corresponds to the base that you choose. More End
