Estimating Area WORKSHEET
Find the area of right triangles, other triangles, special quadrilaterals, and polygons by composing into rectangles or decomposing into triangles and other shapes; apply these techniques in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems.
Estimating Area WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION
Once students have found the area of rectilinear shapes by counting squares they can start to estimate the area of irregular shapes using the same method. In section A, will estimate the areas of six different shapes constructed using straight, diagonal and curved edges drawn on a cm square grid and then write these areas in ascending order. Section B is a similar task but here the shapes contain no curved edges and students are encouraged to use parts of squares to help them.
All worksheets are created by the team of experienced teachers at Cazoom Math.
