Sure! Let’s solve each problem step by step. The worksheet asks for the
area of each quadrilateral. We’ll identify the shape and use the correct area formula for each.
---
[1] Square (side = 22 in)
- All sides equal, all angles 90° →
Square
-
Area = side × side = s²
- Area = 22 × 22 =
484 in²
✔ Answer: 484 in²
---
[2] Rectangle (length = 28 m, width = 12 m)
- Opposite sides equal, all angles 90° →
Rectangle
-
Area = length × width
- Area = 28 × 12 =
336 m²
✔ Answer: 336 m²
---
[3] Parallelogram (base = 10 m, height = 9 m)
- Opposite sides parallel and equal →
Parallelogram
-
Area = base × height
- Area = 10 × 9 =
90 m²
✔ Answer: 90 m²
---
[4] Rhombus / Kite (diagonals = 10 cm and 3 cm)
- Shape has perpendicular diagonals → likely a
rhombus or kite
-
Area = (d₁ × d₂) ÷ 2
- Diagonals are 10 cm and 3 cm
- Area = (10 × 3) ÷ 2 = 30 ÷ 2 =
15 cm²
✔ Answer: 15 cm²
---
[5] Trapezoid (bases = 7 yd and 12 yd, height = 1.5 yd)
- One pair of parallel sides →
Trapezoid
-
Area = (sum of bases) × height ÷ 2
- Area = (7 + 12) × 1.5 ÷ 2 = 19 × 1.5 ÷ 2 = 28.5 ÷ 2 =
14.25 yd²
✔ Answer: 14.25 yd²
---
[6] Trapezoid (bases = 5 mm and 9 mm, height = 3 mm)
- Again, trapezoid
-
Area = (b₁ + b₂) × h ÷ 2
- Area = (5 + 9) × 3 ÷ 2 = 14 × 3 ÷ 2 = 42 ÷ 2 =
21 mm²
✔ Answer: 21 mm²
---
[7] Parallelogram (base = 30 m, height = 28 m)
- Opposite sides parallel →
Parallelogram
-
Area = base × height
- Area = 30 × 28 =
840 m²
✔ Answer: 840 m²
---
[8] Rhombus / Kite (diagonals = 8 in and 6 in)
- Diagonals intersect at right angles →
Rhombus or Kite
-
Area = (d₁ × d₂) ÷ 2
- Area = (8 × 6) ÷ 2 = 48 ÷ 2 =
24 in²
✔ Answer: 24 in²
---
