7 4 Area of a rectangle
How could we calculate the perimeter of this rectangle? 5cm 3cm
How do we calculate the perimeter of any rectangle or square? width length We add two lots of the length and two lots of the width! A = l + l + w + w
How do we calculate the area of any rectangle or square? width length We multiply the length by the width! A = l x w
Find the area of this shape: 2cm 2cm 5cm 5cm
Today’s Task • Match the different shapes to their areas and perimeters. • The groups does not need to match all of the shapes, it is more important that each person works on a shape that challenges them. • If necessary two people could work on the same shape and compare their answers. • For each shape you must show how you worked out the area and the perimeter. • You cannot glue a matching pair onto your A3 paper unless the rest of the group agree with your method. • If you complete both the * shapes (these are the challenge shapes) draw a challenge shape of your own and work out the area and the perimeter.
