Question

a rectangle is divided into equal parts. which statement is true?
the lines dividing the shape must be drawn from top to bottom.
all the equal parts must have the same area.
all the equal parts must be square in shape.
the lines dividing the shape must be drawn from left to right.

Explanation:

When a rectangle is divided into equal parts, the key characteristic is that each part has the same area. The lines dividing the rectangle can be drawn in various directions (not just top - to - bottom or left - to - right), and the equal parts do not have to be square (they can be rectangles or other shapes as long as their areas are equal).

Answer:

All the equal parts must have the same area.
