"Demonstrate procedural fluency by selecting the correct: • area formula and correctly calculating a specified value."

What you'll learn

  1. Apply area formulas for rectangles (A=lw), triangles (A=1/2*bh), parallelograms (A=bh), trapezoids (A=1/2*(b1+b2)*h), and circles (A=pi*r^2)
  2. Decompose composite figures into non-overlapping simpler shapes and sum their areas
  3. Find the area of shaded regions by subtracting the area of an inner shape from an outer shape
  4. Calculate the perimeter of polygons and composite figures, counting only the outer boundary — including edges exposed by a cut-out and curved edges from C = 2πr
  5. Calculate the area of polygons on the coordinate plane
  6. Solve applied problems in which a real-world object is modelled by these figures
