Area of compound shapes

Mathematics · Measurement · procedural

Recognise area as additive; find areas of rectilinear figures by decomposing into non-overlapping rectangles and summing their areas

What mastery looks like

  • Decompose an L-shape into two rectangles, find each area, and add them
  • Find the area of a floor plan shaped like a T by splitting into rectangles
  • Solve: A room is L-shaped (3m×5m plus 2m×4m) — what is the total area?

Check your understanding

If Area of compound shapes is given an L-shaped room on squared paper, can they split it into two rectangles, find the area of each part, and add them to get the total area?
