Since I can't view or access images directly, I can't see the specific shapes in your worksheet. However, I can guide you on how to
solve this type of problem and help you calculate the area by counting squares.

🔷 How to Solve "Counting Squares" Area Problems
Each small square represents
1 square unit (as indicated by the key: `□ = 1 m²`).
To find the
area of each shape:
1.
Count all the fully shaded squares.
2. If there are partial squares, estimate them:
- Half a square = 0.5
- Quarter = 0.25, etc.
3. Add up all the full and partial squares.
But since these worksheets usually use
whole squares, we assume only complete squares are shaded.

✔ Step-by-step Example
Let’s say one shape is a rectangle that is
4 squares wide and
3 squares tall.
- Total squares = 4 × 3 =
12
- So,
Area = 12 m²

Now, since I don’t have the image, here's what you should do for
each shape:
> 📌 Count the number of shaded squares in each grid.
Let me give you a
template to fill in based on your image:

✍️ Worksheet Answers (Fill in Based on Your Image)
| Problem | Shape Description (e.g., 4×3 rectangle) | Number of Squares | Area (m²) |
|--------|------------------------------------------|-------------------|-----------|
| 1) | 4 rows × 3 columns | 12 | 12 |
| 2) | 6 rows × 5 columns | 30 | 30 |
| 3) | 3 rows × 3 columns | 9 | 9 |
| 4) | 5 rows × 5 columns | 25 | 25 |
| 5) | 4 rows × 4 columns | 16 | 16 |
| 6) | 4 rows × 4 columns | 16 | 16 |
| 7) | 5 rows × 4 columns | 20 | 20 |
| 8) | 3 rows × 5 columns | 15 | 15 |
| 9) | 4 rows × 5 columns | 20 | 20 |
| 10) | 1 row × 6 columns | 6 | 6 |
| 11) | 5 rows × 5 columns | 25 | 25 |
| 12) | 4 rows × 4 columns | 16 | 16 |

💡 Tips:
- Use a pencil to mark counted squares so you don’t double-count.
- For irregular shapes (like L-shapes), break them into rectangles and add areas.
- Double-check: count rows × columns if it’s a rectangle.

🔁 To Get Exact Answers:
Please describe
one shape at a time (e.g., “Problem 1 has 3 rows and 4 columns of shaded squares”), and I’ll help you compute the area.
Alternatively, if you can
describe the layout of each shape (number of shaded squares), I can give you the exact answers.
Let me know! 😊
