Step-by-step solution for: Grade 5 - Perimeter Area Worksheet 4 - Kidschoolz
To solve the problem, we need to calculate the perimeter and area for each of the given shapes. Let's go through each shape step by step.
---
#### Dimensions:
- Length = 66 cm
- Width = 40 cm
#### Perimeter:
The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is:
\[
P = 2 \times (\text{Length} + \text{Width})
\]
\[
P = 2 \times (66 + 40) = 2 \times 106 = 212 \, \text{cm}
\]
#### Area:
The formula for the area of a rectangle is:
\[
A = \text{Length} \times \text{Width}
\]
\[
A = 66 \times 40 = 2640 \, \text{cm}^2
\]
Answer:
\[
\boxed{212 \, \text{cm}, 2640 \, \text{cm}^2}
\]
---
#### Sides:
- \(a = 52 \, \text{cm}\)
- \(b = 28 \, \text{cm}\)
- \(c = 18 \, \text{cm}\)
#### Perimeter:
The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of its sides:
\[
P = a + b + c
\]
\[
P = 52 + 28 + 18 = 98 \, \text{cm}
\]
#### Area:
We use Heron's formula to find the area of the triangle. First, calculate the semi-perimeter \(s\):
\[
s = \frac{a + b + c}{2} = \frac{52 + 28 + 18}{2} = \frac{98}{2} = 49 \, \text{cm}
\]
Next, apply Heron's formula:
\[
A = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}
\]
\[
A = \sqrt{49(49-52)(49-28)(49-18)}
\]
\[
A = \sqrt{49(-3)(21)(31)}
\]
Since the side lengths do not form a valid triangle (the sum of any two sides must be greater than the third side), this triangle is impossible. Therefore, the area cannot be calculated.
Answer:
\[
\boxed{98 \, \text{cm}, \text{Area cannot be calculated}}
\]
---
#### Sides:
- \(a = 32 \, \text{cm}\)
- \(b = 29 \, \text{cm}\)
- \(c = 28 \, \text{cm}\)
#### Perimeter:
The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of its sides:
\[
P = a + b + c
\]
\[
P = 32 + 29 + 28 = 89 \, \text{cm}
\]
#### Area:
We use Heron's formula to find the area of the triangle. First, calculate the semi-perimeter \(s\):
\[
s = \frac{a + b + c}{2} = \frac{32 + 29 + 28}{2} = \frac{89}{2} = 44.5 \, \text{cm}
\]
Next, apply Heron's formula:
\[
A = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}
\]
\[
A = \sqrt{44.5(44.5-32)(44.5-29)(44.5-28)}
\]
\[
A = \sqrt{44.5 \times 12.5 \times 15.5 \times 16.5}
\]
Calculate step-by-step:
\[
44.5 \times 12.5 = 556.25
\]
\[
15.5 \times 16.5 = 255.75
\]
\[
556.25 \times 255.75 = 142140.9375
\]
\[
A = \sqrt{142140.9375} \approx 377.01 \, \text{cm}^2
\]
Answer:
\[
\boxed{89 \, \text{cm}, 377.01 \, \text{cm}^2}
\]
---
#### Dimensions:
- Length = 48 cm
- Width = 28 cm
#### Perimeter:
The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is:
\[
P = 2 \times (\text{Length} + \text{Width})
\]
\[
P = 2 \times (48 + 28) = 2 \times 76 = 152 \, \text{cm}
\]
#### Area:
The formula for the area of a rectangle is:
\[
A = \text{Length} \times \text{Width}
\]
\[
A = 48 \times 28 = 1344 \, \text{cm}^2
\]
Answer:
\[
\boxed{152 \, \text{cm}, 1344 \, \text{cm}^2}
\]
---
#### Sides:
- \(a = 32 \, \text{cm}\)
- \(b = 22 \, \text{cm}\)
- \(c = 22 \, \text{cm}\)
#### Perimeter:
The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of its sides:
\[
P = a + b + c
\]
\[
P = 32 + 22 + 22 = 76 \, \text{cm}
\]
#### Area:
We use Heron's formula to find the area of the triangle. First, calculate the semi-perimeter \(s\):
\[
s = \frac{a + b + c}{2} = \frac{32 + 22 + 22}{2} = \frac{76}{2} = 38 \, \text{cm}
\]
Next, apply Heron's formula:
\[
A = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}
\]
\[
A = \sqrt{38(38-32)(38-22)(38-22)}
\]
\[
A = \sqrt{38 \times 6 \times 16 \times 16}
\]
Calculate step-by-step:
\[
38 \times 6 = 228
\]
\[
16 \times 16 = 256
\]
\[
228 \times 256 = 58368
\]
\[
A = \sqrt{58368} \approx 241.6 \, \text{cm}^2
\]
Answer:
\[
\boxed{76 \, \text{cm}, 241.6 \, \text{cm}^2}
\]
---
#### Sides:
- \(a = 28 \, \text{cm}\)
- \(b = 30 \, \text{cm}\)
- \(c = 34 \, \text{cm}\)
#### Perimeter:
The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of its sides:
\[
P = a + b + c
\]
\[
P = 28 + 30 + 34 = 92 \, \text{cm}
\]
#### Area:
We use Heron's formula to find the area of the triangle. First, calculate the semi-perimeter \(s\):
\[
s = \frac{a + b + c}{2} = \frac{28 + 30 + 34}{2} = \frac{92}{2} = 46 \, \text{cm}
\]
Next, apply Heron's formula:
\[
A = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}
\]
\[
A = \sqrt{46(46-28)(46-30)(46-34)}
\]
\[
A = \sqrt{46 \times 18 \times 16 \times 12}
\]
Calculate step-by-step:
\[
46 \times 18 = 828
\]
\[
16 \times 12 = 192
\]
\[
828 \times 192 = 159024
\]
\[
A = \sqrt{159024} \approx 398.78 \, \text{cm}^2
\]
Answer:
\[
\boxed{92 \, \text{cm}, 398.78 \, \text{cm}^2}
\]
