Explore the area formulas for common shapes like rectangles, squares, and parallelograms. Learn how to calculate the area using the formula Area = base × height (A = bh) for rectangles and squares, and understand how these concepts apply to shapes with right angles. We'll also discuss what happens when you cut a rectangle in half and how it transforms into triangles. Engage in practice problems with various dimensions and see the relationships between different shapes, including trapezoids and rhombuses.

Rhombus bh The rhombus is just a parallelogram with all equal sides! So it also has bh for an area formula.

Earlier, you saw that you could use two trapezoids to make a parallelogram. Let’s try something new with the parallelogram.
Earlier, you saw that you could use two trapezoids to make a parallelogram. Let’s try something new with the parallelogram. Let’s try to figure out the formula since we now know the area formula for a parallelogram.
Trapezoid So we see that we are dividing the parallelogram in half. What will that do to the formula?
