  2. 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 ...

  3. Parallelogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallelogram

    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 l (half linear dimensions yields quarter area), and the area of the parallelogram is A ...

  4. 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 ...

  5. Pappus's area theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pappus's_area_theorem

    The extended parallelogram sides DE and FG intersect at H. The line segment AH now "becomes" the side of the third parallelogram BCML attached to the triangle side BC, i.e., one constructs line segments BL and CM over BC, such that BL and CM are a parallel and equal in length to AH.

  6. Area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area

    The area of a shape can be measured by comparing the shape to squares of a fixed size. [2] In the International System of Units (SI), the standard unit of area is the square metre (written as m 2), which is the area of a square whose sides are one metre long. [3] A shape with an area of three square metres would have the same area as three such ...

  7. Hooper's paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hooper's_paradox

    The brown parallelogram is the overlapping area of the two triangles. Upon close inspection one can notice that the triangles of the dissected shape are not identical to the triangles in the rectangle. 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.

  9. Area of a triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_of_a_triangle

    In geometry, calculating the area of a triangle is an elementary problem encountered often in many different situations. The best known and simplest formula is T = b h / 2 , {\displaystyle T=bh/2,} where b is the length of the base of the triangle, and h is the height or altitude of the triangle.
