5 How to Facts to Know • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Solve Word Problems with Geometry Basic Geometric Formulas Perimeter • Perimeter is the length around a closed shape. It is computed by adding the length of all the sides of the figure. • The formula for finding the perimeter of rectangles and other parallelograms is P = (l + w) x 2 or P = 2 l + 2 w Area The area of a flat surface is a measure of how much space is covered by that surface. Area is measured in square units. • Area of a Rectangle The area of a rectangle is computed by multiplying the width of one side times the length of the adjoining side. A=lxw • Area of a Triangle A triangle is always one half of a rectangle or a parallelogram. The area of a triangle is computed by multiplying 1/2 of the base times the height of a triangle. A = 1– b x h 2 The area of a rectangle can also be determined by multiplying the base times the height. A=bxh • Area of a Parallelogram The area of a parallelogram is computed by multiplying the base times the height. A=bxh • Area of a Circle To find the area of a circle, multiply π (3.14) times the radius times the radius again. 2 A=πr Circumference The circumference is the distance around a circle. To find the circumference of a circle, multiply π (which always equals 3.14) times the diameter or multiply 2 times π (3.14) times the radius. C = π d or C = 2 π r Volume • The formula for finding the volume of a rectangular prism, such as a box, is to multiply the length times the width times the height. V = l x w x h • The formula for finding the volume of a cylinder is to multiply π (3.14) times the radius squared 2 times the height. V = π x r x h • Volume is always computed in cubic units. Use cubic inches or centimeters when determining volume for small prisms and cylinders, and cubic feet or meters for larger ones. 21 1 Practice • • • • • Recalling Information About Lines and Geometry Directions: Using the information on pages 5 and 6, choose the answer to each question. 1.
