A.only B
B.B & D✓ Correct
C.only C
D.A & D
Explanation
Graph paper (B) and tiles (D) are the best resources to demonstrate that two rectangles with different dimensions can have the same area without using formulas. On graph paper, students can draw different rectangles and count the squares to compare areas. With tiles, students can physically arrange the same number of tiles into different rectangular shapes (e.g., 12 tiles can form 3×4 or 2×6 or 1×12 rectangles). A scale just measures length, and a thread is useful for perimeter but not area.
