Area and Perimetre

Introduction

In the previous chapter we have studied about the shape and size of some geometrical figures. In this chapter we will study about area and perimetre of some close geometrical figures,

Area

Area is referred as the surface occupied by the geometrical shapes

Area of a Triangle

Area of a triangle

Where base is one side of a triangle and height is the length of altitude drawn from opposite vertex on the given base,

Area of the triangle

Where BC is the base and AD is the height,

•            Example

Find the area of the triangle whose base is 5 cm and height is 8 cm.

Solution:

Perimetre

Perimetre is referred as the length of the boundary line which endorse the

Perimetre of the Triangles

Perimetre of a triangle = Sum of length of all three sides.

Perimetre of the triangle
