Maths | Art | Geometric Landscape

LI: To measure length and calculate perimeter and area. 

We learnt how to calculate area, perimeter, width and length. They are 4 different ways to measure. An explanation of each would be:This week for art I am doing geometric landscape I used the triangle shape for my sketch. 

Area
The area is the space inside a shape or your targeted object. For example, a 3 by 3 pixelated square. The area of the shape would be 1. This is because the only remaining inside square, excluding the outer squares equals to 1.

Perimeter
Perimeter is the outline or the outer layer of something. If you take your hand as an example, the perimeter would be your skin. The reason for this is because the 1st layer or the outer layer of your hand is skin.

Width
The width is how wide or thick/thin. If something is really wide, the width result would be a large number (most likely in decimals). Wide is another way of saying width, but is used with different vocabulary. Examples: This apple is WIDE. The WIDTH of this pencil is 9cm.

Length
Length meaning how long something is. If we see the length of the skytower, is 328 meters/1,076 ft. The length is the mathematical way (or another way) of saying tall.
