Calculating the Area of Shapes

We know about all kinds of one-dimensional parameters, like side lengths and what not, but now we want to talk about the two-dimensional area that a shape will occupy. This can be thought of as the amount of surface that a shape covers. In this clip, we go over some of the formulas we can use to calculate the area for different shapes, and how these are derived.

Whoops, in the checking comprehension the units themselves should be squared on the answers, sorry about that!

Bruh I learned more in 6 and a half minutes than in 20 hours with the teacher
That's saying something!

Everyone understands what you say because you don't say what is happening, you say why is it happening, thanks for shared knowledge ❤️

Thank you so much for this. I just got into seventh grade and wasn’t understanding how my teacher did it, but this makes everything so much clear to me now. Thank you so much 😊

Thank you so much, this helped so much during quarantine since my maths teacher wasn't really teaching us anything very well.

My teacher gives us like 15 minute lessons that are very poorly explained and then gives us a test expecting us to know how do to this, very very helpful thank you so much

[scepticlemox]

He just taught me more than my teacher did in a whole term in 6 minutes it shows something

[edwardelric]

Who's from year 8 and just forgot how to calculate areas?

[Smittycards]

Here trying to help with my kids homework. I’m more confused now 😂

[nrg_unstableboi]

no cap this 6 min vid is beter the my 30 min one that my teacher made

[siddhidongrescreativity]

The first part to me was the most helpful🙂
Thnx🙏🙏🙏
