I still need help on Area and perimeter, for exams. We started Algebra and it's a piece of LIGuyz those tips are not helping.
The perimeter is simply the length of the sides added together.
That is easy for polygons for circles and curved shapes you will have to wait until you get to spherical trigonometry.
For area
For regular 4 sided polygons the area is the height multiplied by the height. For triangles it is the 1/2 the altitude times the base and for Circles it is pi times R squared.
For irregular shapes you have to break the shape down into regular shapes figure each one separately and add them together.

Therein lies the difficulty. You first need to find what type of questions the exam will be testing for and then give an example of ones you don't understand. If you have no trouble understanding your current math book and lessons. You will have no trouble with the exam. If you are having trouble with your current book, give an example of the questions you have problems with.

Here is a real math question : How do you do area and perimeter? need very detailed version ( perhaps from zak
http://www.bgfl.org/bgfl/custom/resources_ftp/client_ftp/ks2/maths/perimeter_and_area/index.html
how about that?

Have you reached the level where you are name the various types of equations?
I ask that to get some idea as to what type questions will be on your exam.
Been years but let me see if I can get this right. I don't think it matters how you start it off you will still get the same answer
-2t+34=54-6t
(I added 6t to both sides which cancels out -6t)
-2+6t+34=54
(-2 + 6t = 4t)
4t+34=54
(I subtracted 34 from both sides to cancel out +34)
4t=20
(I divide 4 into 20 to leave 't' by itself)
t=5?
-2t+34=54-6t
(I added 6t to both sides which cancels out -6t)
-2+6t+34=54
(-2 + 6t = 4t)
4t+34=54
(I subtracted 34 from both sides to cancel out +34)
4t=20
(I divide 4 into 20 to leave 't' by itself)
t=5?

Adding 6t to both sides I get
6t-2t+34=54-6t+6t
reducing to
4t+34=54
reducing to
4t=20
reducing to
t=5

perimeter: add together all the sides
area:
triangle: 1/2bh, mutiply the base and the hight then multiply that by 1/2
Square: LxL multiply the two sides
The area of a parallelogram is b × h
the area of the trapezoid is
1/2 × h × (a + b) .
The area of a circle is Pi × r2 or Pi × r × r, where r is the length of its radius. Pi is a number that is approximately 3.14159.
i won't blame you if you hate finding the area of a circle lol i use to hate it too :-[
this site it really good http://www.mathleague.com/help/geometry/area.htm just open your mind and you'll see the facts going right in
all the best in your tests inshallah
