This math topic focuses on teaching students how to identify a rectangle that has the same area as a given trapezoid. The exercises are inclusive of several problems where students must select the correct rectangle that matches the area of different trapezoids, engaging the students in visual understanding and spatial reasoning within the concept of area measurement. This helps reinforce understanding of the formula for the area of a trapezoid and application in comparative geometry contexts.
