Area relates to the space inside a shape whereas perimeter means the distance around the outside. Here we will discuss some common shapes and how to calculate both parts.
Circumference is the term used for the perimeter of a circle. We are given the formula for this in our exams so in this video we are going to show you how to use it.
Similar to circumference we are also given the formula for the area of a circle. We need to be careful to make sure we notice the difference between radius and diameter.
Here we will show you some common rules that are used to solve shape problems. The main thing here is to be able to describe your answers properly to get full marks.
For this video we will show you how to find the size of angles on the inside of any shape. With regular shapes every angle is the same size, whereas with irregular shapes we may need to solve an equation.
The following worksheet will revisit all of the skills you have practiced throughout this block. This is a good chance to see where your shape work is at and to get feedback on what may be worth recapping! Try and answer each question to the best of your ability, and if you need reminding you can watch the videos above. Good luck!
