Measurement

• Perimeter
• Converting length units
• Circumference of a circle
• Arc length
• Converting area units
• Area of squares and rectangles
• Area of triangles
• Area of parallelograms
• Area of trapezia
• Area of kites
• Area of a circle
• Area of semi and quarter circles

• Area of composite shapes
• Surface area of basic solids

A composite shape is made when two or more shapes are put together. To find the area of a composite shape, first the area of each individual shape must be found, then these are either added together or subtracted depending on the shape to find the total area of the shape.
