Area & Perimeter of a Rectangle Online Quiz
- Area is the amount of space that is inside a shape.
- Because it is an amount of space, it has to be measured in squares.
- If the shape is measured in cm, then the area would be measured in square cm or cm 2
Area of a Rectangle
- If you are measuring the area of a rectangle, then the area will equal the length multiplied by the width.
- Or Area of a rectangle = length x width.
- The area of the rectangle below is 5 x 3 = 15 squares.
- Perimeter is the distance around the outside of a shape.
- It can be measured in cm, inches, feet, yards, km, miles, etc.
A good way of thinking about the perimeter of a shape in front of you is to imagine that you are very small and standing on one of the corners of the shape. Imagine walking along the sides of the shape until you get back to where you started. The distance you have walked will be the perimeter.

How to find the perimeter of a rectangle
To find the perimeter of a rectangle, there are several different ways, you can use the one you prefer:
- Add up the lengths of each side seperately
- Double the lengths of the adjacent sides and add them together.
- Add the adjacent sides and double the answer.
Perimeter Example
Find the perimeter of the rectangle below.
We will work the perimeter out using the 3 different ways above:
- Add up the lengths of each side separately: 7 + 2 + 7 + 2 = 18
- Double the lengths of the adjacent sides and add them: double 7 + double 2 = 14 + 4 = 18
- Add the adjacent sides and double the answer: double (7 + 2) = double 9 = 18

Area and Perimeter Problem Solving
Each problem needs to be identified as either an area problem or a perimeter problem and then solved..
The problems on the sheet are identical, but the measurements get progressively harder to do!
These sheets are designed for kids from 3rd to 5th grade.

Area and Perimeter of Rectilinear Shapes
These sheets involve working out the area of rectilinear shapes.
A rectilinear shape is a shape made out of rectangles.
Find the perimeter by adding up the side lengths (you many need to work some of them out first!)
Find the area by working out the areas of the rectangles and adding them up!
These sheets are suitable for 4th and 5th graders.
There is a support video to help you solve these problems underneath the sheets.
