Perimeter is the distance around the outside of the object
To find a perimeter we _____ up the ________e.g.
Perimeter = ___ + ___ + ___ + ___ + ___ = ___
Perimeter
Perimeter is the distance around the outside of the object
To find a perimeter we add up the sidese.g.
Perimeter = ___ + ___ + ___ + ___ + ___ = ___
Perimeter
Perimeter is the distance around the outside of the object
To find a perimeter we add up the sidese.g.
Perimeter = 6 + 8 + 11 + 12 + 7 = 44
Perimeter
Area is the surface an object has. How much flat space it takes up.
Each type of shape has its own rules.
The unit for area is the unit for the side with a squared sign.
cm cm2
m m2
km km2
Area
Rectangles and squares follow the basic rule about area.
AREA = WIDTH x HEIGHT 8
A = ___ x ___ 4 = ___
Rectangles and Squares
Rectangles and squares follow the basic rule about area.
AREA = WIDTH x HEIGHT 8
A = 4 x 8 4 = 32
Rectangles and Squares
Cut the shape into two rectangles with a line.
Now you have 2 rectangles. You can calculate the area of each rectangle.
Top rectangle18 x 10 = 180
Bottom rectangle9 x 12 = 108
Total Area180 + 108 = 288
Unit is cm2
A = 288cm2
Parallelograms are just like rectanglesAREA = WIDTH x HEIGHT
You must be careful about the number you use for height.
The height of this parallelogram is not ___ it is ___. This is because the ___ is on a lean.

You must be careful about the number you use for height.
The height of this parallelogram is not 8 it is 6 . This is because the 8 is on a lean.
Triangles don't stay the same width the whole way across.
Two triangles can make a rectangle so each triangle is half as much area as the rectangle. AREA = ½ x WIDTH x HEIGHT

Like a triangle the width of a trapezium changes.
We have to work out the average width. 8
14
A = (a + b) x h A = ( __ + __ ) x __ 2 2
Trapeziums
Average Width = (top side + bottom side) ÷ 2

To find the area of a circle you need the radius.
The radius is the distance from the ________ of the circle to the _________.
Circles
middleoutside
radius
To calculate the area use the formula
A = π r2
π is just a number (3.1415926535897932384626433832795)You have a calculator button for it.
Multiply it by the radius then multiply it by the radius again. You will need to round your answer.
