  2. Parallelogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallelogram

    The area of the parallelogram is the area of the blue region, which is the interior of the parallelogram. The base × height area formula can also be derived using the figure to the right. The area K of the parallelogram to the right (the blue area) is the total area of the rectangle less the area of the two orange triangles. The area of the ...

  3. Square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square

    The area of a square is the product of the length of its sides. The perimeter of a square whose four sides have length is = and the area A is =. [1] Since four squared equals sixteen, a four by four square has an area equal to its perimeter.

  4. Area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area

    That is, the area of the rectangle is the length multiplied by the width. As a special case, as l = w in the case of a square, the area of a square with side length s is given by the formula: [1] [2] A = s 2 (square). The formula for the area of a rectangle follows directly from the basic properties of area, and is sometimes taken as a ...

  5. Varignon's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varignon's_theorem

    An arbitrary quadrilateral and its diagonals. Bases of similar triangles are parallel to the blue diagonal. Ditto for the red diagonal. The base pairs form a parallelogram with half the area of the quadrilateral, A q, as the sum of the areas of the four large triangles, A l is 2 A q (each of the two pairs reconstructs the quadrilateral) while that of the small triangles, A s is a quarter of A ...

  6. Missing square puzzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missing_square_puzzle

    Splitting the thin parallelogram area (yellow) into little parts, and building a single unit square with them. The key to the puzzle is the fact that neither of the 13×5 "triangles" is truly a triangle, nor would either truly be 13x5 if it were, because what appears to be the hypotenuse is bent.

  7. Rhomboid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhomboid

    Traditionally, in two-dimensional geometry, a rhomboid is a parallelogram in which adjacent sides are of unequal lengths and angles are non-right angled.. The terms "rhomboid" and "parallelogram" are often erroneously conflated with each other (i.e, when most people refer to a "parallelogram" they almost always mean a rhomboid, a specific subtype of parallelogram); however, while all rhomboids ...

  9. Hooper's paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hooper's_paradox

    The length of the shorter side at the right angle measures 2 units in the original shape but only 1.8 units in the rectangle. This means, the real triangles of the original shape overlap in the rectangle. The overlapping area is a parallelogram, the diagonals and sides of which can be computed via the Pythagorean theorem.
