TRIANGLES
The surface area or surface (A) of a triangle is calculated by the formula:
A (triangle) = 0.5 x base x height = 0.5 x bxh(1)

Triangles can have many shapes but the same formula is used for all of them.

Examples of triangles:

EXAMPLE
Calculate the surface area of the triangles no. 1, no. 1a and no. 2
Given
Triangles no. 1 andno.1a: base = 3 cm and height = 2cm

Triangleno. 2: base =3 cm and height = 2cm

Answer: Formula: A = 0.5 x base x height

= 0.5 x 3 cm x 2 cm = 3 cm2
A = 0.5 x 3 cm x 2 cm = 3 cm2

SQUARES AND RECTANGLES

The surface area or surface (A) of a square or a rectangle is calculated by the formula:
A (square or rectangle) = length x width = lxw(2)

In a square the lengths of all four sides are equal and all four angles are right angles.
In a rectangle, the lengths of the opposite sides are equal and all four angles are right
angles.

A square and a rectangle

Calculate the surface areas of the rectangle and of the square.

Given
Square: length = 2cm and width = 2 cm
Formula: A = length x width
Solution: = 2 cm x 2 cm = 4 cm2

Rectangle: length = 5cm and width = 3 cm

Formula: A = length x width
Solution: = 5 cm x 3 cm = 15 cm2
