If a parallelogram with area p, a triangle with area R and a triangle with area T are all constructed on the same base and all have the same altitude, then
A) P=R
B) P=A
C) P=A/2
D) P=2R
Answer: A) P=R
Explanation:
let each have base = b and height = h then p = b*h, R = b*h and T = (1/2) * b*h so P = R, P = 2T and T = (1/2)*R are all correct statements
