MEASUREMENT

Grade 4
Mathematics
Quick recall!
Look around you and spot objects
that look like a rectangle.

Do you know how to find their


area and perimeter?
Lesson Outline
• Area of a rectangle on a Grid
• Area vs. Perimeter
• Solving for the Area and Perimeter
Learning Outcomes
• Determine the area of a rectangular figure
on a grid
• Differentiate area and perimeter
• Solve word problems involving area and
perimeter of a rectangle
Rectangle
LENGTH

• Has 4 sides.
• Has 4 right angles.
• Parallel sides have equal
measures. WIDTH

• The sides of a rectangle are


known as length and width.
Area on a
Grid
A grid has vertical and horizontal
lines that form a square. Each
square measures 1 sq. unit.

Let's count how many squares the


blue rectangle covers.
Area on a
Grid
There are 35 squares.

This means that the rectangle has an


area of 35 square units.

WIDTH

length x width 2 (LENGTH + WIDTH)

Area Perimeter
The area is the product of The perimeter is twice the sum of
length and width. Area is the length and width. Perimeter is
expressed in square units. expressed in units.
Example
Let's find the area and perimeter of this basketball court.

15M Area
Area = length × width
Area = 15 m × 11 m
Area = 165 sq. cm

11M
Perimeter
Perimeter = 2 (length + width)
Perimeter = 2 (15 m + 11 m)
Perimeter = 2 (26 m)
Perimeter = 52 m
Mid-Discussion
