Area of 2D shapes WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION

Commonly, students find it difficult to switch between formulae for areas when working with various shapes. This worksheet is the perfect resource to use to aid your students in doing just this, as it asks your students to find the area of rectangles, triangles, trapezia, parallelograms and kites across sixteen questions. None of the images, however, require students to choose which lengths to use and which to ignore from their calculations.

Area of 2D shapes, could be used as revision material or when reviewing at the end of a unit on area.
