AREA of a RECTANGLEHow many square units will be used to cover a rectangular region whose length is 4 units and width is 3 units long?

Area = 4 units x 3 units = 12 units2 The formula is:

Area =l × wwhere: w = width

l = length

A=12 units2

AREA of a RECTANGLEExample: What is the area of this rectangle?

5 cm

4 cm

The formula is:Area =l × w

where: w = widthl = length

We know that w = 4 cm and l = 5 cm, so: Area = 5 cm × 4 cm = 20 cm2

Let’s Summarize1. The area of a region is the number of square units

contained in the region.

2. A square unit is a square with a side 1 unit in length.The area (A) of a rectangle is the product of its length (l) and its width (w). A = lw

3. The area (A) of a square is the square of the length of a side (s). A = s2

4. The area (A) of a parallelogram is equal to the product of the base (b) and the height (h). A = bh

5. The area (A) of a triangle equals half the product of the base (b) and the height (h). A = ½ bh. Sometimes altitude is used instead of height.

6. The area (A) of a trapezoid is one half the product of the length of its altitude and the sum of the lengths of the two bases. A = ½ h (b1 + b1).7. A circle is a set of points in a plane that have the same distance from a given point in the plane. 8.The formula for the area of a circle with a radius of r and diameter of d units are: A = r2 and A = (d/2)2 respectively.Note: In all circles the ratio of the circumference to the diameter is always equal to the same number, represented by the Greek letter .
