How can you apply formulas for perimeter, circumference, and area to find and compare measures?
2
Lesson 11-1 Areas of Rectangles (page 423) Essential Question How do you calculate the area of a rectangle?
3
Areas of Rectangles Rectangle Rectangular Region Area is measured in square units. u 2 vs. u vs.
4
The area of a square is the square of the length of a side. Postulate 17 s A = s 2 s s s
5
Also, the perimeter of a square is 4 times the length of a side. s P = 4s s s s
6
If two figures are congruent, then they have the same area. Postulate 18
7
The area of a region is the sum of the areas of its non-overlapping parts. Postulate 19
8
Any side of a rectangle (parallelogram) can be considered to be a base (b). b
9
Any segment perpendicular to the line containing the base from any point on the opposite side is an altitude. b
10
The length of an altitude is called the height (h). b h
11
The area of a rectangle equals the product of its base and height. Theorem 11-1 b A = b h h
12
OR, the area of a rectangle equals the product of its length & width. ℓ A = ℓ w w
13
The perimeter of a rectangle equals the twice length + twice width. ℓ w w ℓ P = 2ℓ + 2w … P = 2b + 2h
14
Example #1 The area of a square is 9 sq. cm. Find its perimeter. s s s s
15
Example #2 The perimeter of a rectangle is 20 cm. If its height is 4 cm, find its area. 4 cm b
16
Example #3 Consecutive sides of the figure are perpendicular. Find its area. 4 4 6 9 3 7 5 11 9
17
4 4 6 9 3 7 5 11 9 16 u 2
18
Example #3 Consecutive sides of the figure are perpendicular. Find its area. 4 4 6 9 3 7 5 11 9 16 u 2 11 99 u 2
19
Example #3 Consecutive sides of the figure are perpendicular. Find its area. 4 4 6 9 3 7 5 11 9 16 u 2 99 u 2 35 u 2
20
Example #3 Consecutive sides of the figure are perpendicular. Find its area. 4 4 6 9 3 7 5 11 9 16 u 2 99 u 2 35 u 2 A = 16u 2 + 99u 2 + 35u 2 = 150u 2
