Essential Question, Objectives & Standards Covered
Essential Question:
How can we find the area of figures? Learning Objectives 1. Students will be able to identify which formula to use for a specific situation. 2. Students will be able to properly substitute values for variables to find the area of a given figure. 3. Students will be able to decompose an irregular figure into familiar figures to find the area. |
Standard:
MGSE6.G.1 Find area of right triangles, other triangles, quadrilaterals, and polygons by composing into rectangles or decomposing into triangles and other shapes; apply these techniques in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems. |
