Comment on How do you find the height of a triangle using the area formula? by slowjerry

Sadly, no, your end product is wrong.
Here’s how to get the right answer from the formula A= 1/2 * b * h

divide both sides by b ( base length)

A / b = 1/2 * h

finally multiply both sides by 2

2 * A / b = h

h = 2A/b

Comment on What is the difference between a conformal map and an equal area map? by cakes4africa

cakes4africa — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 16:00:59 +0000

The Earth is a sphere, while a map is flat. Making a map will therefore introduce distortions, but the map maker can choose the kind of distortion.

In conformal maps and equal area maps the distortion is chosen differently. In a conformal map the angles are preserved, meaning that the shapes are conform to reality.

In equal area maps the areas are preserved, meaning that if one country is twice as big as another, then it will also appear twice as big on the map.

Comment on What is the Surface Area Formula of a 3 Dimensional Rectangle? by bdwolfhound

a 3 Dimensional Rectangle is called a prism. Think about it for two seconds and you'll see that if its dimensions are height h, width w and depth d, then its surface area is 2(hw + hd + wd)

Comment on What is the Surface Area Formula of a 3 Dimensional Rectangle? by miltonmathteacher

Area of each rectangle is l x w.

There are 3 different dimensions on a rectangular prism, so let’s call those x, y, and z.

The area of the top and bottom would be xy
The area of the left and right sides would be yz
The area of the front and back sides would be xz

There are 2 of each of the above, so the final area would be 2 (xy + yz + xz).

Comment on What is the Surface Area Formula of a 3 Dimensional Rectangle? by Fahad

It is the sum of all its faces area , and since you have rectangle , there are 6 faces
just simply compute them and add them up
and if you want a formula , then lets assume the dimensions are X , Y and Z
A= 2xy + 2xz + 2zy

Comment on How do you find the area of triangle? by Lovelee

multiply the base and height….then divide it by 2 (or multiply by 1/2)

It doesn’t matter what you do first. You can multiply in any order. For instance, let’s say our base is 5 and our height is 2. Let’s look at it done every way:

5×2= 10
10x (1/2)= 5

2x (1/2)= 1
1×5= 5

5x (1/2)= 2.5
2.5 x 2= 5

Regardless of what you multiply first, you will always end up with 5.

Either way gets you the same result...
