Composite Figure: a figure that is made by combining triangles, quadrilaterals, semi-circles and other two-dimensional figures.
Perimeter: Is the distance around a figure 7 cm 5 cm 3 cm ? 7 cm 4 cm + 4 cm + 4.71 cm P = 7 cm + 5 cm + 7 cm P = 27.71 cm The perimeter of a circle has a special name, It is called the ______________, and is found using either of these formulas: circumference
Alice is putting a wallpaper border around her bedroom. She must find the __________ of her bedroom in order to purchase the correct amount of border. perimeter 12 ft 3 ft ? 4 ft 6.5 ft ? 3.5 ft 8 ft P = 8 ft + 6.5 ft + 12 ft + 3 ft + 4 ft + 3.5 ft Alice needs to purchase 37 feet of border.

Detective LeRue must investigate a crime committed at the local park. How many square meters of ground must he cover when looking for clues? Total area = 28 m2 + 16 m2 + 21 m2 = 65 square meters Is there another way of finding this area? Area = 4 m (7 m) Area = 4 m(4 m) 4 m 3 m 3 m Area =3 m(7 m) 4 m 28 m2 7 m 21 m2 7 m 16 m2
Step 1: Find area of big rectangle • Step 2: Find area of smaller rectangle • Step 3: Subtract the smaller area from the larger area Total area = 77 m2 – 12 m2 = 65 square meters How can we use subtraction to find the area? 11 m 4 m 4 m 3 m 3 m Area = 3 m(4 m) 4 m 7 m 7 m Area =7 m (11 m) =12 m2 = 77 m2
