Demystifying - Perimeter and area review

Drills

Finding perimeters and areas of straight-sided shapes, and running the formulas backwards.

Author note — to cover
  • Fluency — areas of rectangles, triangles, parallelograms and trapezia from labelled integer sides and heights (4 questions).
  • Composite — L-shapes and joined shapes needing missing sides deduced first, with area and perimeter asked in separate questions (4 questions).
  • Catch — figures labelled with both slant and perpendicular heights, and a missing base recovered from a stated area (4 questions).
