3. Proof Area of Circle=πr2 geometrically
Once we know the circumference of a circle with radius r is 2πr, we can use what is
described in the image to approximate the area of the circle by a parallelogram with
height r and base πr.

Area of parallelogram is equal to base x height = πr x r = πr^2.

4. Prove that area of an equilateral triangle

Area of Triangle = ½ × base × height


Here, base = a, and height = h
Now, apply Pythagoras Theorem in the triangle.

a2 = h2 + (a/2)2
h2 = a2 – (a2/4)
h2 = (3a2)/4
h =(√3a)/2

Now, put the value of “h” in the area of the triangle equation.
Area of Triangle = ½ × base × height
A = ½ × a × ½(√3a) = ¼(√3a2)
