In this geometry worksheet, 6th graders find the area of four squares with given measurements. Students use metric units to calculate the area of each given square.

Given the measurements of three rectangular rooms, scholars determine the area of each. They are given units, so remind them to use square units in their answers. No side measurements exceed 20. Can your scholars measure the classroom...

A triangle, square, hexagon, and circle all have a perimeter of one unit. Eighth graders must attempt to find the area of each and arrange them in order from least to greatest areas. A terrific task for applying four different...

In this online math learning exercise, students practice finding the area of a trapezoid, given the height and length, This excellent resource allows the students to check their answers, and to get "hints" should they run into...

Given a rectangle with specified dimensions, third graders are prompted to create a new rectangle with the same area, but a different perimeter. This challenges learners to think about perimeter and area in a new way. Use...

How can you find the area of a shape? Two shapes are provided on this simple worksheet which asks learners to find the area of the shapes. It's not as hard as it looks! You just have to count the squares! Before telling your pupils this...

In this online math activity, students calculate the area of a variety of rectangles given the measure of their vertices. This excellent resource allows the students to check their answers, and to get "hints" should they run into...

Given the diameter of a circle, learners are charged with finding its area. They halve the diameter, square it, and multiply by pi. Five problems provide basic practice. 

Given a rectangle with specified dimensions, learners are prompted to create a new rectangle with the same perimeter, but a different area. This challenges third graders to think about perimeter and area in a new way. Each problem...

Inscribing a square in a circle brings up a number of interesting geometry topics including triangle congruence and how to prove a quadrilateral is a square. This activity is followed up by finding the area of the square and determining...

Using a scale drawing with some dimensions missing, aspiring do-it-yourself homeowners calculate the remaining sides of a compound-shaped room. They apply the principles of ratio and proportion to determine how much crown molding will be...

Scholars learn how to determine the area of compound shapes by finding the areas of the basic shapes that make it up. Pupils find the areas by adding areas together or subtracting them.

Scholars can use area formulas, but can they apply what they know about area? The lesson challenges learners to think logically while practicing finding area of shapes such as rectangles, circles, parallelograms, triangles, and other...

Challenge the class to devise a method to determine the dimensions of a rectangle inscribed in another rectangle. Pupils make connections between functions and geometry as they examine the area and perimeter of a square or...

To determine the dimensional change to quadruple the area, class members determine how to increase the dimensions of a square and a circle to increase the perimeter by a given factor. they then calculate the necessary factor to...

There's a trick to solving the area of a triangle, and it involves a skill your geometers have already mastered. Help them discover the connection between finding a rectangle's area and finding a right triangle's area as they solve for...

What if I can no longer justify area by counting squares? Lead a class discussion to find the area of a rectangular region with irrational side lengths. The class continues on with the idea of lower approximations and...

Third graders find the area of rectilinear shapes by partitioning them into two non-overlapping rectangles and adding the areas of the non-overlapping parts together. It allows learners to recognize area as an additive.

An exercise in finding the area of polygons by decomposing into triangles and composing into rectangles is the focus of this resource. Make several copies of the worksheet for each participant. Ask learners to use colored pencils to...

How many sides does that polygon have? Building directly from lesson number eight in this series, learners now find the area and perimeter of any polygon on the coordinate plane. They decompose the polygons into triangles and use Green's...

Get third graders excited to work find area and perimeter of unit squares, rectangles, and irregular shapes. A 36-page packet comes with task cards, graphic organizers, practice worksheets, printables with squares, exit tickets, and word...

In this surface area and volume learning exercise, 10th graders identify and complete 3 different problems that include determining the surface area and volume of cubes. First, they use their ruler to find the width and height of each...

These rectangles have everything scholars need to find the area, but none of them has units. Beginners to this skill multiply the length and width, all of which are whole numbers, to calculate and record the area for each. Consider...

In this area of triangles worksheet, students find the area of each triangle in the word problems. Students complete five problems.
