Triangle Area Conjecture:
The area of a triangle is given by the formula A = (1/2)bh, where A is the area, b is the length of the base, and h is the height of the triangle.
Trapezoid Area Conjecture:
The area of a trapezoid is given by the formula A = (1/2)(b1 + b2)h, where A is the area, b1 and b2 are the lengths of the bases, and h is the height of the trapezoid.
Kite Area Conjecture:
The area of a kite is given by the formula A = (1/2)d1d2, where A is the area and d1 and d2 are the lengths of the diagonals. 8.2 Area of Triangles, Trapezoids, and Kites.notebook
