Geometry Practice: Perimeter, Area, and Coordinate Grids

Name:                              
Date:              

Today I am practising: Applying perimeter and area formulas and reading simple coordinate positions on a grid.

1

A rectangle has length 6 units and width 3 units. What is its perimeter?

2

A square has sides of 4 units. What is the area of the square?

3

On a grid, point A is at (2, 3) and point B is at (5, 3). How many units apart are the two points?

4

A rectangle has area 24 square units and width 4 units. What is its length?

5

A shape is made from a 3-by-2 rectangle and a 2-by-2 square joined along one side. What is the total area of the combined shape?

6

On a grid, a triangle has corners at (1, 1), (4, 1), and (1, 5). How many right angles does the triangle have?

Grown-up guide
  1. Encourage the learner to write the unit in each answer, check work with a quick sketch, and ask them to explain how they found each result.
