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...

When algebra and geometry get together, good things happen! Given a system of inequalities that create a quadrilateral, learners graph and find vertices. They then use the vertices and Green's Theorem to find the area and perimeter of...

Here is a very interesting way of studying triangles and polygons. Pupils work together and use pieces of string to create a variety of shapes. Depending on how many kids are manipulating the string at any one time, the number of...

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...

In this geometry worksheet, students describe the effect of a proportional change on the perimeter or circumference and area of the given circles or quadrilaterals.  The one page worksheet contains ten problems.  Answers are...

First graders draw and describe various types of polygons. they investigate their own environments for examples of polygons. After reading the book, The Greedy Triangle, they discuss everyday objects that are polygons. They create shape...

Students identify polygons and calculate perimeter. For this geometric shapes lesson, students complete a worksheet identifying various polygons and calculating the perimeter of triangles and quadrilaterals.

Students identify basic shapes (triangle, square, rectangle, circle), create shapes with different body parts, and create shapes at various levels (high, low)

First graders study the attributes of circles, squares, triangles and rectangles. They sort shapes that are the same and those that are different into groups.

In this math worksheet, learners count the number of rectangles and triangles they see in two drawings. Each figure has overlapping shapes.

Students apply the formulas for the area of parallelograms and triangles. Through guided practice, students discover the correct way to apply the formulas. Working in pairs, they write their own problems featuring the formulas.

Students randomly select dimensions for three geometric shapes (square, right triangle and circle). From the graphs they compare and contrast the graphical results of each shape.

Using this worksheet, students practice identifying basic shapes, such as an oval, rectangle, triangle, and hexagon. This worksheet would be ideal for preschool or kindergarten students.

Third graders discover geometric shapes by completing a series of games and activities. Using ropes with knots tied every foot, they make shapes such as squares, triangles, and hexagons. In pairs, 3rd graders use pattern blocks to...

Students create a quilt square for a class quilt using at least three, two-dimensional geometric figures. They research and write a brief description of at least two different quilt patterns that they find. Pupils discuss that quilts are...

High schoolers draw perpendicular bisectors.  In this perpendicular bisectors lesson, students identify the perpendicular bisector in a polygon.  They use web tools to create and measure perpendicular bisectors.  High...

Students identify the importance of the Principles and Elements of design through self-analysis and sketching clothing appropriate for their body type. They write the actual color name on a line of the included sheet, then describe why...

In this similarity worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 14 different types of problems. First, they refer to each drawn figure given that the lines are parallel. Then, students find the length of each segment listed. In addition,...

In this rectangles and shapes worksheet, students complete a variety of exercises including counting the number of faces on a solid object, coloring solids to match nets and coloring plane shapes. Students check their answers online as...

For this 7th grade mathematics compilation worksheet, 7th graders solve and complete 40 various types of mathematics problems. They determine the measure of various angles and the side-lengths in integers of a square. Students also...

In this shape identification worksheet, students are shown a page of different shapes and they are to colour all of the rectangles on the page.

In this addition worksheet, students count, write and add together 6 sets of different color-coded shapes in the boxes provided. Students totals will average between 10 and 18.

In this number and operations worksheet, students solve and complete 3 different sections of one problem that uses the Pythagorean theorem to solve. They use the model illustrated to determine the meaning of the Pythagorean theorem....

In this basic shapes worksheet, students view labeled pictures of a circle, square, triangle, rectangle and oval. They are not asked to do anything with these shapes.
