First we need to find he length of each side by
counting the squares.

The distance
around the
outside of a shape
is called the
perimeter.
8 cm
The perimeter of the shape is 8 + 6 + 8 + 6 = 28cm.

To find out how much shape is inside we can
count the squares.
The area of a
shape is the
amount of space
inside it.
The area of the shape is 18cm2.

This is an irregular
shape. This
means that the
sides aren’t
straight.
To find the area of
an irregular shape
you first count the
full squares inside
it.
You then count all
the other squares
which have more
than half the area
covered.
The area of the shape is 60cm2.

The rectangle is made of 6 rows of 8 squares.
To work out the number of squares
we times 6 by 8.
Counting each
square can take a
long time. Does
anyone know a
quicker way?
The area of the shape is 48cm2.

We can work out the area of a rectangle
without the grid.

Area = length x width
Now work out the

A shape that is
made from other
shapes is known
as a composite
shape.

To find the area of
this shape we
have to split it up
into two
rectangles.
