6.7 Area of Triangles and Quadrilaterals

You can use the postulates below to prove several theorems. Using Area Formulas You can use the postulates below to prove several theorems. AREA POSTULATES Postulate 22 Area of a Square Postulate The area of a square is the square of the length of its side, or A = s 2. Postulate 23 Area Congruence Postulate If two polygons are congruent, then they have the same area. Postulate 24 Area Addition Postulate The area of a region is the sum of the areas of its nonoverlapping parts.

Theorem 6.20 Area of a Rectangle Using Area Formulas AREA THEOREMS Theorem 6.20 Area of a Rectangle The area of a rectangle is the product of its base and its height. A = b h Theorem 6.21 Area of a Parallelogram The area of a parallelogram is the product of a base and its corresponding height. A = b h Theorem 6.22 Area of a Triangle The area of a triangle is one half the product of a base and its corresponding height. A = b h 1 2

Using Area Formulas You can justify the area formulas for triangles and parallelograms as follows. The area of a parallelogram is the area of a rectangle with the same base and height. The area of a triangle is half the area of a parallelogram with the same base and height.

Using the Area Theorems Find the area of ABCD. SOLUTION Method 1 Use AB as the base. So, b = 16 and h = 9. Area = b h = 16(9) = 144 square units Method 2 Use AD as the base. So, b = 12 and h = 12. Area = b h = 12(12) = 144 square units Notice that you get the same area with either base.

Finding the Height of a Triangle Rewrite the formula for the area of a triangle in terms of h. Then use your formula to find the height of a triangle that has an area of 12 and a base length of 6. SOLUTION Rewrite the area formula so h is alone on one side of the equation. A = b h 1 2 Formula for the area of a triangle 2 A = b h Multiply both sides by 2. 2 A b = h Divide both sides by b. Substitute 12 for A and 6 for b to find the height of the triangle. 2 A b h = 2(12) 6 = = 4 The height of the triangle is 4.

Finding the Height of a Triangle A triangle has an area of 52 square feet and a base of 13 feet. Are all triangles with these dimensions congruent? SOLUTION Using the formula for the height of a triangle, the height is h = 2 (52) 13 = 8 feet. There are many triangles with these dimensions. Some are shown below.

Areas of Trapezoids, Kites, and Rhombuses THEOREMS Theorem 6.23 Area of a Trapezoid The area of a trapezoid is one half the product of the height and the sum of the bases. A = h (b 1 + b 2) 1 2 Theorem 6.24 Area of a Kite The area of a kite is one half the product of the lengths of its diagonals. A = d 1 d 2 1 2 Theorem 6.25 Area of a Rhombus The area of a rhombus is equal to one half the product of the lengths of the diagonals. A = d 1 d 2 1 2

Finding the Area of a Trapezoid Find the area of trapezoid W X Y Z. SOLUTION The height of W X Y Z is h = 5 – 1 = 4. Find the lengths of the bases. b 1 = Y Z = 5 – 2 = 3 b 2 = X W = 8 – 1 = 7 Substitute 4 for h, 3 for b 1, and 7 for b 2 to find the area of the trapezoid. A = h ( b 1 + b 2 ) 1 2 Formula for the area of a trapezoid A = h ( b 1 + b 2 ) 1 2 4 3 7 Substitute. = 20 Simplify. The area of trapezoid WXYZ is 20 square units.

Areas of Trapezoids, Kites, and Rhombuses The diagram justifies the formulas for the areas of kites and rhombuses. A = d 1 d 2 1 2 The diagram shows that the area of a kite is half the area of the rectangle whose length and width are the diagonals of the kite. The same is true for a rhombus.

Finding the Area of a Rhombus Use the information given in the diagram to find the area of rhombus ABCD. SOLUTION Method 1 Use the formula for the area of a rhombus. d 1 = BD = 30 and d 2 = AC = 40 A = d 1 d 2 1 2 A = (30)(40) 1 2 = 600 square units

Finding the Area of a Rhombus Use the information given in the diagram to find the area of rhombus ABCD. SOLUTION Method 1 Use the formula for the area of a rhombus. d 1 = BD = 30 and d 2 = AC = 40 A = d 1 d 2 1 2 A = (30)(40) 1 2 = 600 square units Method 2 Use the formula for the area of a parallelogram. b = 25 and h = 24. A = b h = 25(24) = 600 square units
