A square with side length 1 unit, called “a unit square,” is said to have “one square unit” of area, and can be used to measure area. b. A plane figure which can be covered without gaps or overlaps by n unit squares is said to have an area of n square units.
Measure areas by counting unit squares (square cm, square m, square in, square ft, and improvised units).
This worksheet consists of six shapes (mostly rectangluar) for students to find the area of by counting in section A. In section B there are six more shapes, here students must match up pairs of shapes with the same area.
