How do we find all possible rectangles with a fixed area?   Think of all factor pairs of the area  
🗑
How do we find all possible rectangles with a fixed perimeter?   Divide the perimeter by 2 and think of all addend pairs that add up to half the perimeter  
🗑
Area or semi-circle   Find the area as if it was a full circle and divide by 2  
🗑
