Sample Questions

Level 1 — Warm Up

  1. Find the perimeter of a rectangle with length 1515 cm and breadth 99 cm.
  2. A square has a side of 1212 cm. Find its area.
  3. A figure on a grid covers 1818 full squares and 66 half squares. Estimate its area.

Level 2 — Build Confidence

  1. The perimeter of a rectangle is 4848 cm. Its length is 1414 cm. Find the breadth.
  2. Find the area of a triangle with base 1616 cm and height 1010 cm.
  3. A rectangular park is 120120 m long and 8080 m wide. Find the cost of fencing at Rs 3535 per metre.

Level 3 — Push Yourself

  1. A rectangular room is 1010 m by 88 m. A 1.51.5 m wide verandah runs along one length and one breadth. Find the area of the verandah.
  2. Two squares have sides 55 cm and 33 cm. They are placed side by side to form a rectangle. Find the perimeter of this rectangle.
  3. A rectangular plot is 5050 m by 3030 m. A path 22 m wide runs inside along the boundary. Find the area of the path.

Tips for Perimeter and Area Problems

Tips for Perimeter and Area Problems

1. Perimeter = boundary, Area = surface. Perimeter is the total length around a shape (measured in cm, m). Area is the space inside (measured in sq. cm, sq. m). Always check which one the question asks for.

2. Write the formula before substituting. Even for simple problems, writing "Perimeter = 2(l + b)" first prevents mistakes.

3. For composite figures, break into simpler shapes. An L-shape can be split into two rectangles. Find the area of each and add them.

4. Path/border problems have a standard trick. Area of path = Area of outer shape - Area of inner shape. Always draw and label both dimensions clearly.

5. Always include units in your answer. "48" is not a complete answer. "48 sq. cm" is. This matters in exams.
