Overview
The purpose of this lesson is to learn how to find the area and perimeter of various polygons and to identify the angle sum of any polygon.
This lesson will address the following CCRS Standard(s) for Geometry:
- 7.G.6: Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving area, volume and surface area of two- and three- dimensional objects composed of triangles, quadrilaterals, polygons, cubes, and right prisms
- G.MG.2: Apply concepts of density based on area and volume in modeling situations (e.g. persons per square mile, BTUs per cubic foot)
