Master Finding the area and perimeter of rectangles and shaded regions

This video tutorial explains how to calculate the area and perimeter of rectangles and shapes composed of rectangles. It covers the formulas for area and perimeter, using examples of rectangles, squares, and composite shapes. The tutorial also discusses the importance of understanding dimensions and orientation when applying these formulas. Additionally, it demonstrates how to handle complex shapes by breaking them into simpler components.

What is the formula for finding the area of a rectangle using base and height?

• Area = base + height

• Area = base x height

• Area = base / height

• Area = base - height

If a rectangle has a base of 7 meters and a height of 4 meters, what is its area?

• 14 square meters

• 22 square meters

• 28 square meters

• 11 square meters

How do you calculate the perimeter of a rectangle?

• Subtract the base from the height

• Multiply the base by the height

• Add all the side lengths together

• Divide the base by the height

What is the area of a square with side length 6.5 feet?

• 39 square feet

• 26 square feet

• 13 square feet

• 42.25 square feet

How do you find the area of a shaded region within a larger square?

• Add the areas of the large and small squares

• Divide the area of the large square by the small square

• Subtract the area of the small square from the large square

• Multiply the areas of the large and small squares

What is the perimeter of a square with side length 6.5 feet?

• 13 feet

• 26 feet

• 39 feet

• 52 feet

How do you find the total area of a complex shape made up of multiple rectangles?

• Multiply the areas of all rectangles

• Divide the total perimeter by the number of rectangles

• Add the areas of all rectangles

• Subtract the smallest area from the largest
