Solids come in many shapes and sizes. Using geometry, scholars create two-dimensional cross-sections of various three-dimensional objects. They develop the lesson further by finding the volume of solids. The module then shifts...

Scholars crave practical application. Let them use the different models of a quadratic function to plan the size and shape of a school playground. They convert between the different forms and maximize area.

Here is a presentation that's chock full of great tips on how to memorize multiplication facts, and how to calculate the area of shapes that aren't perfect squares or rectangles. Many good problems are in each of the slides. A great...

In this measurement worksheet, 1st graders study the different rectangles and then find the perimeter of each rectangle to the nearest inch.

Upper graders represent multiplication of a two-digit number by a two-digit number as the area of a rectangle with dimensions of the two factors. They find patterns for the number of different base ten blocks in a rectangle representing...

In this geometry instructional activity, 10th graders use single variable equations to solve problems focusing on area and perimeter of triangles, trapezoids, parallelograms, rectangles, and hexagons.  The one page instructional...

In this calculating perimeter worksheet, students use their problem solving skills and the information provided to find the perimeter of 6 squares and rectangles.

Students solve problems by finding the perimeter and area of an enclosed area. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between the area and the perimeter. They see how they relate and how to use it to maximize an enclosed area.

In this perimeter and area worksheet, students examine given perimeters and determine the dimensions that will give the maximum area.  This one-page worksheet contains four multi-step problems.

In this area and perimeter worksheet, learners are given the equations to find the perimeter and area of objects. They practice finding the perimeter by measuring the sides of given objects and adding them together. They find the area of...

In this measuring perimeters worksheet, students measure the perimeters of each rectangle to the nearest centimeter. Students solve 6 problems.

In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders determine the perimeter, area, or volume of the indicated figure.  The five page worksheet contains a combination of twenty-two multiple choice and free response questions.  Solutions...

In this system of equation worksheet, students use the substitution and elimination methods to solve systems of equations. Students must read a short story, write the equations the story represents, and then solve the systems of...

What does popcorn have to do with math?  Seventh grade mathematicians are provided an opportunity to develop a conceptual understanding of the formula for volume and to use it as a tool to solve problems. The instructional activity...

Students use the graph and equation of a perimeter function to find characteristics that minimizes the perimeter of a rectangle. They comprehend that in business situations, such as packaging and city planning, minimizing perimeter is an...

In this polygons activity, 10th graders solve 10 different problems that include finding the perimeter and area of various polygons. First, they determine the length of the base of a rectangle given its height. Then, students determine...

In this perimeter worksheet, students find the perimeter of four rectangles.  Explanations, examples, and solutions are provided.

For this area and perimeter worksheet, students solve and complete 4 various types of problems. First, they find the perimeter and area of each shape illustrated. Then, students draw a shape made of rectangles that has a given area.

In this geometry worksheet, students match 5 shapes to several terms, determine the radius and diameter from 2 diagrams, and find the area and perimeter of 3 problems.

In this perimeter practice worksheet, students review the steps to finding the perimeter of a shape using the information at the top of the page. They find the perimeter of 3 shapes at the bottom of the page.

In this perimeter learning exercise, students calculate the perimeter of L-shaped figures by subtracting to find missing side lengths.  There are 6 questions.

In this perimeter worksheet, students find the perimeter of 8 geometric shapes. There are instructions and samples on the page.

Students explore area and perimeter. In this math lesson plan, students differentiate between area and perimeter and compute the area and perimeter of an object.

For this calculating perimeter worksheet, students examine 8 rectangles and use the information provided to find the perimeter of each of them.
