Area of Irregular Shapes

            This  shape  does  not  fit  the  squares  exactly.  There  are  12

            whole squares.

            There are 14 partial squares which may be estimated as 7
            squares.

            Approximate area  = 12 + 7

                                     = about 19 square units.

            Word Problems


            Example   :  Find  the  perimeter  of  this                                        9 m

                             park.  If  it  costs  `  150  for                 3 m                            3 m
                             fencing 1 m, how much will                        3 m                            3 m

                             it cost for fencing the park ?                2 m                                       2 m

            Solution   :  We  can  see  that  this  figure                     3 m                            3 m
                             has  many  sides  of  different                   3 m                            3 m

                             measures. Hence, to find the                                      9 m

                             perimeter, we will add all its
                             sides.
