Rectilinear shapes

Maths

Area of 2-D shapes

Fill in the gap: Rectilinear shapes are polygons where all sides meet at a __________________.

Fill in the gap: We can find the area of rectilinear shapes by splitting the shape into two or more _________________.

Fill in the gap: One way in which the shape could be split is shown. The area of this shape can be calculated by the following calculation: 12 × ___ + 6 × 7

What is the area of this rectilinear shape?

Find the area (A) and perimeter (P) of this rectilinear shape.

Fill in the gap: To work out the area of a __________ we need to know how many square units lie within its boundary.

Fill in the gap: Instead of counting square units within the rectangle, we can multiply the ________ and width to work out the rectangle’s area.
