Metres and litres are spelled with -re as you would find in many countries outside of the U. Converting between Metric and U. Most commonly, students will use a formula to convert and round the values.

You may like our converting inches and centimeters with rulers worksheets for students who have difficulty with manipulating the numbers and formulas and need an easier method. If they are available, full round protractors help students to recognize that measuring angles is the same as measuring sections of a circle. They also makes it much easier and precise to measure reflex angles.

Rectangles are fairly straight-forward polygons to measure since it is easy to find rectangles that use whole numbers. Rectangles are generally used when students first learn about perimeter and area and it is an opportune time to teach students that units are an essential part of any measurement. Without units, numbers are meaningless. Get your students into the habit of expressing all of their measurements with the correct units before they learn how to measure other polygons.

Especially make sure they know that area is always expressed with squared units. If a student is just starting to learn about perimeter and area, a few hands-on activities to learn the concepts is a good idea. Have them use square tiles to cover an area, have them paint a piece of paper and see how much paint is required. Create rectangles with straws and pipe cleaners and fill with square tiles to differentiate between perimeter and area.

See if there are differently shaped rectangles that will hold the same number of square tiles. If you want students to understand the triangle area formula, you might want to study parallelograms and rectangles first. Once students get how area is calculated for rectangles and parallelograms, they simply need to cut parallelograms and rectangles in half diagonally to get related triangles.

They should quickly see that the area of a triangle is simply half of the area of the related quadrilateral. Worksheets for calculating the area and perimeter of polygons other than triangles and rectangles. The shapes are mixed up on the worksheets in this section. These area and perimeter worksheets would be best suited to students who have mastered finding the areas of triangles, rectangles, parallelograms, and trapezoids. For students who need an extra challenge, give them the compound shapes worksheet, but make sure they know how to find the area and circumference of a circle first.

Radius, diameter, circumference and area are all related measurements; you only need one of them to find the remaining measurements. Diameter and radius are the simplest ones because the diameter of a circle is twice the radius and, conversely, the radius is half the diameter.

Depending on your accessibility to calculators or computers, you may use many digits of pi in the calculation or just a few. Often, people without calculators use an estimate of pi 3 or 3. Just for fun we made a worksheet with pi to , decimal places. The calculations on the worksheets below use a fairly precise version of pi; you may have to adjust the answers if you use more rounded versions of pi.
