Measurement - Area and Volume

Learning to identify, recognize and measure various two and three dimensional objects are fundamental topics in Geometry. This concept covers such topics, and further teaches us to compute the area and perimeter of triangles, trapezoids and circles. In addition, we learn to compute the volumes and surface areas of prisms and cylinders.
The concept is broken into smaller topics, which makes it easier and much more fun for students. The topics are listed below:-
Area of Circles
This topic covers the computation of areas of circles. We will also learn to estimate the area of a circle by using a grid.
Area of Composite Figures
This topic covers the computation of areas of composite figures by breaking them apart into rectangles, parallelograms, and triangles.
Area of Triangles and Trapezoids
In this topic, we will learn about computing the area of a triangle, and how the formula for computation is derived from parallelograms. This topic will also cover the area of trapezoids using the properties of triangles.
Comparing Area and Perimeter
In this topic, we will learn to make a model to explore how area and perimeter area affected by changes in the dimensions of a figure.
Estimating and Finding Area
This topic covers estimation of the area of irregular figures. Area of rectangles and parallelograms are also covered.
Surface Area
In this topic, we will learn to find the surface areas of prisms, pyramids, and cylinders.
Three-Dimensional Figures
In this topic, we will learn to name three-dimensional figures. We will also learn to identify the number of faces, edges, and vertices on three dimensional figures.
Volume of Cylinders
This topic covers computation of volume of cylinders. It also covers word problems on volume of cylinders and volume of the shaded regions of a cylinder.
Volume of Prisms
In this topic, we will learn to find the volume of rectangular prisms and triangular prisms.
