5A Perimeter and Area Quiz

A rectangle has four sides. They are:

• l, l, w, w

• l, w, s, s

• s, s, l, s

• w, l, w, w

Perimeter (which we call P) of a rectangle is found using:

• P = 2(length + width)
• P = length x width
• P = length + width
• P = 2(length x width)

What does "perimeter" mean?

• The measurement around a shape

• The volume of a shape
• The width of a shape

What units can we measure perimeter in?

• Square meters

What is the area of a 2D shape?

• The space inside the shape
• The length of the shape
• The perimeter of the shape
• The volume of the shape

What is the equation to find the area of a rectangle?

• Area = Length x Width

  A = L x W

• Area = Length + Width

  A = L + W

• Area = Length x Volume

  A = L x V

• Area = Length - Width

  A = L - W
