CCSS Math Standard: 6.G.1

Find the area of right triangles, other triangles, special quadrilaterals, and polygons by composing into rectangles or decomposing into triangles and other shapes; apply these techniques in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems.

Deducing the Area of Triangles

Using patterns, students try to deduce where that area formula came from.
