3D Shapes: Solid figures with three dimensions – length, width, and height. Examples include cubes,
rectangular prisms, spheres, cylinders, and cones.
2. Perimeter of 2D Figures
The perimeter is the distance around a 2D shape.
Formulas:
Square: 4 times side
Rectangle: 2( length + width)
2(6 + 4)
20 cm
Triangle: sum of three sides of a triangle
Example Problem:
Find the perimeter of a rectangle with a length of 6 cm and width of 4 cm.
3. Area of 2D Figures
- The area is the amount of space inside a 2D shape.
Formulas:
Square: A= (4cm)^2 cm = 16 cm^2
Rectangle: A = length times width
Triangle: ½ (base times height)
Circle: π r 2 = 3.14(r)^2
Example Problem:
Calculate the area of a triangle with a base of 8 cm and a height of 5 cm.
4. Circumference of a Circle
The circumference is the distance around a circle.
Formula: 2 πr ∨πd
Example Problem:
Find the circumference of a circle with a radius of 7 cm.
5. Volume of 3D Figures
Volume is the amount of space inside a 3D shape.
Formulas:
Cube: V =side3
Cone: πr (r + √ r 2+h 2)
Example Problem:
Find the surface area of a sphere with a radius of 5 cm.
