Areas of Kites WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION
This worksheet develops problem-solving skills by exploring the areas of kites through decomposition and similarity. Students are asked to calculate the area of different colored regions within each kite, encouraging them to apply the formula for the area of a kite and adapt it to smaller sections. The problems progress in complexity, beginning with straightforward calculations of diagonals and moving into tasks where similarity and ratios are used to determine missing areas. The variety of colored sections makes the activity engaging while reinforcing the importance of careful measurement and systematic working. By the end, students not only practice applying area formulas but also strengthen their understanding of proportional reasoning and geometric properties.
All worksheets are created by the team of experienced teachers at Cazoom Math.
