Question

work out the area of each shape by writing the numbers in square as you count them write the area on the next to them.

Answer 1

The area of the (i) figure = 25 boxes = 25 sq.units .

Here length = 5 units.

breadth = 5 units.

Finally Area = 5*5 = 25 sq. units.

The area of the (ii) figure = 8 boxes = 8 sq.units .

Here length = 4units.

breadth = 2 units.

Finally Area = 4*2 = 8sq. units.

The Area of (iii) figure = 8 boxes = 8 sq.units.

Here length = 2units.

Breadth = 4 units.

Finally Area = 2*4= 8 sq. units

The Area of (iv) figure = 4 boxes = 4 sq.units.

Here length = 4units.

Breadth = 1 units.

Finally Area = 4*1= 4sq. units

Answer 2

The area of the first figure = 25 boxes = 25 sq.units .

Here length = 5 units.

breadth = 5 units.

Finally Area = 5*5 = 25 sq. units.

The Area of second figure = 8 boxes = 8 sq.units.

Here length = 4 units.

Breadth = 2 units.

Finally Area = 4*2 = 8 sq. units
