Area and Perimeter of Compound Shapes

This document provides instructions for calculating the area and perimeter of compound shapes. It explains that the area of a compound shape is the sum of the individual areas of each component shape. The individual area of a shape is calculated by multiplying its length by its breadth. It also explains that the perimeter is calculated by summing the measurement of all the sides of the shape. The document then provides a table to calculate the unknown sides, area, and perimeter for 9 different compound shapes labeled a) through i).

Area and Perimeter of Compound Shapes

Q1. Find the measurement of unknown sides, and then find out area and perimeter of each
shape:

Hint:

Area of compound shape: area of shape A + area of shape B

Area of shape A = length A x breadth A

Area of shape B = length B x breadth B

Perimeter = A+B+C+D… (sum of all sides)
